          here are the pics we took.

          these are also with the stock 275/40?/17's.

          and they still fit underneath pretty well.

                Sweeet!

                Methinks those would look good on my 1D.

                Do the center caps fit ok? I couldn't tell in the photos. Might want to take some more pictures of them during the daytime.

                  the front center caps didnt fit. but meh.


                  I would have taken better pics, but it was kinda a spur of the moment deal. as I was at a BBQ and got the idea to take them off my friends stang and put them on mine.

                      Bummer on the center caps, but I think I might convert to SN95 brakes anyway. My Koni's are shot and there's not much else that is compelling me to stay with the stock setup.


                      I really like those wheels though. I might have to see what my buddy at the parts counter at the local dealer can do for a set of those.

                        yeah, I plan to swap to 03 cobra stuff this winter. but I am happy that these wheels will fit for the rest of the year.

                            well,

                            friend didnt accept my offer. so I found a set of black FR500's for about the same price. I should be getting those soon.
