Ordered some SVE Drifts (18x9 / 18x10) for the 95 a few weeks back. Wrapped them in Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ tires. 265/35/18 and 285/35/18. No more fender gap! Need to work on getting it lowered now though. Any recommendations on decent suspension setup?

Thanks, guys! Hopefully I can get some kind of suspension setup by the end of summer. I'd really like to get the car sits figured out. After that I'm going to look into a cam/gear setup to hopefully make some more power and get this thing to scoot a bit more.

Those wheels look awesome. That thing is going to rock when you drop it a bit. Stance is everything. (says the guy with stock wheels and ride height) ;)

The wheels look awesome. I just purchased the same set. Just need to buy tires now.

Suspension suggestions: I just completed the install of Max-Motorsports Torque Arm, Adjustable lowers with panhard bar with Koni front coil-overs and matching correct MM rear springs. I had the KB Matrix so I installed the Re-Enforcement Subs as a bonus.

It's not cheap but what a difference it makes.

What exhaust do you run?
I just picked up a MM panhard bar as well and I know most tailpipes don't fit with the PB.
I picked up a set of LateModel Resto's tailpipes which are claimed to fit.

Quick update. On a tight budget with this thing unfortunately so stuff goes slow. Parts list that needs to go on when I have some time:

- Strange Adjustable Shocks and Struts
- New Clutch Cable and quadrant that's adjustable at the firewall
- Lowering Springs
- KYB Gas-Adjust Quad Shocks
- Polyurethane Motor Mount and Transmission mount
- Ford Racing Aluminum Driveshaft
- Steeda Cam Bolts (alignment after the struts and lowering springs)

Hoping to get all of this crap on before it gets too terribly cold out.
