Been looking a long time!

Post by SASSY »

Every swap meet, show, buynsell, gearheads I've talked to, holidays, for at least 15 years finally,
15x7s with an inch more backspace than the 14x6s on the car
No holes to mount centercaps so my push through Mooneye bullet tips look right. Happy ol bugger today!
The bells aren't identical on the back side but they clear the brakes and the face is exact match to the deep rears.
We'll see if I have enough elbow left to get them as shiny as the rears ,,,

Congrats, Fred! :D

That should buy you extra 5+ mph in the turns. I've owned several pair of the AR 14" variety.
I like my road huggers on the front.

Well, I also have a set of 6s and 7s in 14" that I'm looking to make a set of adapters for my quad,,,,, the utility trailer needs an update, broke a hose reel last year, ya spare is a good idea.
Also have a pair of 13" 4bolt slots and one of the Ford factory Mustang slots with the pinstripe.
Just having them around is good too,,,😁
