    New wheels and KDW's

    Finally got my wheels polished up and tires mounted. Got them on the car last night and clean it up a little for the nice cruisin weather today.

    The wheels are ZE Forged 'Boost". 18x9 fronts with 275/35/18 and the rears are 18x10 with 295/35/18. Wanted to go wider, but 295 is as big as they go in KDW's unless you get a 335, which won't fit on a 10" wheel.


    Got the Springs coming to get rid of the 4x4 look. I'm polishing the Borla tail pipes right now and will get all the Irs bushings installed when I do the springs.

    Let me know whatcha think

    Nice! I haven't seen those on a mustang before. I'm a big fan of non-ford wheels on mustangs, as long as they look good.

    BTW- are you missing a center cap on the front passenger side wheel?

    I didn't have the pass side caps on....getting the letters on the center caps painted in sonic blue...nice eye...

    Also missing the 12 pt ss bolts on the the drivers rear....thinking about finding a black coated flush head screw instead of the protuding 12 pt bolts...

    Looks great....I love sonic blue.


    You may already know this, but bushing replacement is not related to spring replacement....entirely different animals.

    But..While I have the whole IRS out to do the bushings, I'll change the springs...not taking it apart twice....

    also going to reseal the diff and add the BF irs brace

    Then whem I put it all back together, I'll put on the polished tails...don't have time to take things apart 2 and 3 times

    Ok....it sounded like you were saying it the other way around...."while I'm changing the springs I'm going to do full bushings too." :)



    Looking forward to seeing it without the 4x4 look.
