So are you saying that you didn't have spacers on at first and the Mechanic suggested you put on spacers, so you did? Where can I buy some of these spacers?

Quick question though, with the tires being wider, would it cause rubbing on anything, I know you said in an earlier post that you have spacers, but is it neccessary? I'm thinking of some 275/55/17 Toyo Proxes S/T. I was looking at the different brands and came across that, and what do you know...

16 is really good for a truck like this.

Yeah, so I guess my dad was just double checking to make sure I don't mess up my newly purchased car. I figured it wouldn't be too bad. Better safe than sorry, thanks guys.

So my dad and I were talking, he said, that since the Cobra is a rear wheel drive car, the rear tires/suspension would be fine. He did say however that the racket/pinion on the front would be messed up due to the difference in the offset. Is this true? I mean, he knows a lot about cars... but...

Wow, yeah, I was scoping Ebay, haha a lot of guys want $800 for the Tires and rims, then about 150-199 for shipping. :P If I can find a guy around philly for some cheap rims, I'd be extremely happy, and I'd jump up and down like a twelve year old girl if I got them at the same price you did.

I was highly considering a Cold Air Intake, but not neccessarily considering the headers... how much would it increase my power and how much would it cost?

Yeah, I gotta look him up, that exhaust sounds amazing.

'99 Merc Mountaineer Spruce Green: I'm already planning on putting on some 17" SVT Cobra rims on, first. Second I want to put on an exhaust, and I'm leaning towards some Flowmaster 40s, or a custom side exhaust. What else should be done to it?

Damn! Haha, that is what I would want to get. Give me more specifics on that exhaust, that sounds meaty as hell. I love it.

These are all great responses, thanks guys. I'm really leaning towards the Flowmaster 40s on my 5.0 Mountaineer. I'm just trying to figure out what kind of set-up I want. I'm just thinking whether or not I should get the Exhaust or SVT rims first. :( I wish I had more money, then I'd just buy...

Thanks, man. Helped a lot.

Do you guys have any suggestions for a nice, meaty exhaust? I have heard a lot of nice Flowmasters on Youtube, I'm leaning towards those. If you have a particular make you prefer just state the specific model. I'd prefer the Exhaust to be on the cheaper side but still get a lot of bang out of...

That is a fat mountaineer! I'm loving it, did you have to reprogram anything? What kind of tire did you use? How much did those and the rest of your mods cost you, btw?

First:Will it fit, and would I need to reprogram stuff/and what size tire? Second How would it look on a Spruce Green Mountaineer? I'll post a picture of what the car would look like.
