I just bought some new rims and rubber for my 86 4 eye mustang. I have a couple pics of before and after the wheels. Let me know what you think.

Nice Mustang. I think thats the first one i've ever seen with T-tops.

Charlie · 08-07-2008, 12:46 AM

Big improvement. Looks good

*carlover* · 08-07-2008, 12:51 AM

very nice, it looks to be in amazing shape too.

XLGT · 08-07-2008, 07:43 PM

Thanks guys...it is indeed in very good shape it was handed down to me a couple years ago from my uncle, it was his project but lost time and interest so i took over.

One of the few years with T-tops. I have a couple Mustang's myself. Never was much of a fox-body fan. Sharp car though!

*Sams01XplrSprt* · 08-07-2008, 11:59 PM

looks good

Oh man night and day differance.

100% agree with the choice.

X6StringerX · 08-08-2008, 12:24 AM

Those wheels make it look... fast...

trj360 · 08-08-2008, 01:19 AM

My favorite sports car by far, especially that body style. Looks great.

Uafan · 08-09-2008, 11:03 PM

Love it, great choice.

Hitchhikingmike · 08-09-2008, 11:28 PM

Congrats on keeping your car in the best shape ever! Looks brand new!

Don't let my comment discourage you, but I actually like the older wheels better. The new wheels take away from the originality of the car.

Dopler174 · 08-10-2008, 08:50 AM

It makes me want to trade my 25th Anniversary to you.

RAF · 10-31-2009, 10:20 PM

Sexy car

*Joe Dirt* · 11-16-2009, 08:05 PM

Four-eyed pride!

Looks great! My only question- is it just me or are the tires too narrow? It seems like they don't get far enough out to the edge of the rim... Could be the angle though...

Looks awesome!
