Just the tinted tails from american muscle. Match the third break light perfectly



Was a tad more then just new tires but oh well lol



I got them from the guys at modify my stang. I checked everywhere and they were able to get me the best price. Took about 4 weeks or so to be made and shipped

Thanks for the reply. How is the quality of the AM tinted tail lights?

Great choice, definitely my next set up. I'll probably run 17 rears and 18 fronts though.
I bet you can feel the 40lb difference in rotating mass

Irs. Stock cut springs all the way around. Front 17x8 offset is 33 with 5.8 backspacing and the rear is 17x10 offset is 21 with 6.3 backspacing. The back doesnt need spacers but I am also running a 3/8 spacer

I was almost going to go with 18s up front but just kept it 17s all the way around. I can for sure feel it in the steering wheel with the front wheels

Very close to me!

I went 18's up front because of clearance fears with the big brake kit.

I wish they made a 315/40/17 though for the rear

I was stuck between a 275 and a 245. Ended up with a 245. I use to run 275 on my old wheels and the car some what use to steered itself sometimes

They use to make a 295/45/17 which I was going to get but they stopped making it at the end of last year. They 17s are for sure close with the stock calipers and rotors. Any bigger brakes and it would hit

Yea weld and ccw I believe are the same company. Quality fit and finish on the welds were great
