    Been a while since I've been on the site figured id post up a few newer pictures of my car. Put the magnum 500s on last year sometime I was ready for a change. I have been looking around here for a few hours and have become inspired haha.

    Thanks for the sizes.

    One more question .... It looks like your tires fit a bit better outboard than mine .... are you running a stock width rear axle? Are those original Ford wheels, or aftermarket?

    Nice looking Mav! What have you done to your suspension to get it to sit like that? I love the stance!

    The rear is a 9". The wheels are made by Wheel Vintiques.

    Front springs are "modified" a bit and the rear has lowering blocks for now.

    I am starting to like the 14" wheel look....especially lowered. Something about it makes it seem to have a better stance.
    Hmmm
