Next time, power wash under your wheel wells man that thing looks like its been raised a few inched lol.

Your truck looks lower than it, I wonder why it looks so tall?

Yeah, im guessing its due to sidewall height of the tires. The tires on the truck are a lot taller than whats on the TA. Its clean under the wheels wells, just need to get some spray in there to help darken it up.

The car looks extremely tall because of the way the wheels are turned. It's my old car and here's a shots of it with the old ZR1's (just to show that the car isn't as tall as it looks). Thomas you're a good guy bro, but you're crazy if you think Mustang replica wheels look better than 17x9.5/17x11 ZR1's.







Now hurry up and install the rest of the parts!

Its just me man. I just really am NOT a fan of the ZR1's. I cant stand them, lol. Eventually one day when i have a few grand to blow on wheels, there is a set of Foose and Fiske wheels that i want to get.

I also feel that ZR1's don't look good on Firebird's. Some Camaro's look good with them, but I don't think I'd ever own a pair myself. I like my 10-spoke SS wheels better.
