Alloway's Mustang Project - Lateral-g Forums

SLO65 - you are right on the money. They are 20's 265's.

Like Bobby told me today "wheels are like boobs, while the stock ones look alright, big ones look really good." While I can't argue with that- the big wheel deal is an Alloway trademark. With two SMOY winners under his belt and one RU last year (Challenger), it looks like the judges tend to agree with the man.

I'll post more pics as they are available.

Have a great weekend; time for Mai Tai's!

I think Alloway is onto something and more people will start boarding the wagon soon. Sort of looks like this doensn't it?

for some reason the 'rake' of alloway's car and that little model both remind me of 300C's.....

IMO bigger wheels like 22's and 20's are the new trend on bigger body cars. I have looked at a few Mustangs that look real nice with 22's on the back like the one foose did on overhaulin for that dude in the wheelchair. That one was very nice! I plan on putting 22's and 19 on my Chevelle. In the end its all about what u like though if its ur doe do it how u want it.

Hi LF,

I have been following that build also.

But...

The mod to the front frame rails kind of bothers me. They removed 50% of the inner rail (right at the torque box) to make the exhaust fit. I have been watching for any indication that they are going to add frame rail braces, etc... They have done a killer job up to this point, I can not see them just leaving the front end like that.

maybe this is just me, but i feel like Alloway cars all have kinda funny backspacing on those enormous wheels... they seem to sit way to far into the car, and appear as a kind of mix between pro-street and pro-touring...

personally id like to see a slightly smaller, wider wheel, pushed out of the car a hair... maybe then the car would look to be a little bit more "functional" and not so much like a huge toy.

i also personally dont like how muscle cars look "hot-rodded". i feel like they are better suited for more race/pro-touring styling.

again, thats all just my humble opinion. i think Alloway's work is top-notch, and that his styling is definently unique.

i 100% agree with this, the "unique" styling i think is a love it or hate it kinda deal....... while many love it, i dont.

If we side step the styling issues for the moment, I have a question.

Are they using the all aluminum GT block for this build? It would be interesting to see the engine specs.
