3/14/2009 - I got the tires mounted on the rims today and back on the car. Fitment looks really good as is.

Looks good did you stick with your local guy for the tires?

DiscountTiresDirect.com ended up being $400 less than the local guy and $200 less than TireRack.com. I had the local guy mount and balance them.

Looks great the rims remind me of the old Shelby ones but chrome and better design.

That's exactly what they are, a modern version of the 67-68 shelby rims, from shelby for the 2005-2010 mustang, but they fit fine on mine.

Finally getting back to the car after finishing up my project at work and the semester working on my masters degree.

The front suspension and engine/trans installation will be started next week, followed by the installation of the exhaust system and the engine compartment panels.

Hope to have the car to the body shop by June.

What do you guys think of the draft? The color is not final and the tailpanel / gas cap are getting changed, but Kris just started and already I think it looks cool..
