Decided what the hell, why not get some nice wheels for the daily driver. After a lot of searching I found the Ronal R41…the exact type of wheel I wanted, similar to a Cobra R but with a more modern look. 17x8 all around with BFG 245/45/17 Comp TA’s. Drivability is so much nicer with these compared to the stock 16x6’s…doesn’t help that I had the snows on there too…but the handling is so much improved this car is actually pretty fun to drive now:headbang: Snapped a few pics tonight, thought I’d share… ---

I dig 'em Mike! The Thunderbird SVT rims are kinda hot, too. On a dropped First Gen they look amazing. Those are pretty similar, and look like a much better fit for the Second Gen. This is a little off topic, but your plate starts with DBW as does mine… and 3 other SHO’s I see scooting around the area. Justa random weird observation. :tup: ---

Justa random weird observation. :tup: Funny you mention that about the DBW plate…I see AT LEAST 2 per day just driving back and forth to work…I thought I was seeing things but I guess not. Thanks for the compliments on the wheels…I’ll be forwarding this post to the wheel manufacturer! ---
