    Everyone should post a pic of their car here!

    Re: Everyone should post a pic of there car here! some updated ones of my original paint 1988 GT hatch. Just turned 53,000 the other day. Still need to do some odds n ends stuff on it, like the 1/4 windows, paint calipers and drums, and few details under the hood. Just need the time. Last pic...

    Any 4 lug 4X4.25 wheel will fit. So anything you could put on a 4-lug 87-93 Fox will look fine on your '86. Theres a lot out there in the aftermarket. Cobra R's, 00 Cobra, 93 Cobra, 4 lug 03 Cobra, Pony R's, ROH, Draglites, way too much to list. Easy to swap to 5 lug also though. '86's were...

    Wider Stock Wheels?

    oh ok lol. yes I'm sorry to say they did. I actually bought a set of "18X8" Boyds aluminum wheels on eBay and sure enough when I got them they were 17X7. And I even asked the person to make sure they were the exact dimensions he told me they were. Heck they even had 17X7 stamped right into...

    will 01 gt 17's fit my 96 gt?

    Yes any 1994-2004 Mustang wheel will fit your GT fine with no problem. Are the wheels you want the Pony style with the narrow spokes or Bullits? If they are just the base GT wheels, I wouldn't pay 400 for them. You could get a set of Bullits reasonable and they look great. 94-97, 1998, 99-01...

    Tire / Rim question

    yeah same as these guys said, you don't put narrower rims on Mustangs, just wider. Only exception would be a fat n little combo of drag rims. Most Mustang 9'' wide rims fit nice on those, you can also run 10's and 10.5's out back.

    Wider Stock Wheels?

    they are 8'' wide rims. You dont measure a rim by going from edge to edge. You measure just inside the lip on each side. same exact concept with diameter 275's will fit okay but buldge out a little and are a better fit on 9'' wide rims. 255's are a pretty good fit on the 8''s

    Wider Stock Wheels?

    Those rims are the 99-01 Cobra style. The same exact identical rims were used on 03-04 GT Premiums as an option. They are 17X8 with a 5.5BS. They are NOT reproduced, only new Ford versions are available. And I cant tell from your picture if they are the chromed ones or polished, but they were...

    Looking for a cowl. need advice

    no prob not trying to be rude either. I didnt know the Cobra R style was quite that high but maybe. which company are you talking to? Cervini's usually has high quality stuff.

    Looking for a cowl. need advice

    You dont think it would be easier to just go on a few websites and shop around yourself rather than come on here and ask other people to go on websites and look for you while you wait for them? I think you might have trouble finding a high profile hood that isnt just fastened with pins, unless...

    T-top notchbacks are very rare, although there isnt really any production numbers out there for them because Ford didn't keep track of it.

    hows it goin? I live to the west by the Amsterdam Johnstown area. I got a '88 GT. I was wondering the same thing. Well first of all, is anybody going up there yet or is it too early in the season? And second, if any of the guys on this site are going anytime soon? I posted a thread in the...
