Yeah, true true. Makes sense now that I think about it, especially since it’s getting painted.

Lance, I’ve noticed you’re very rude to 80% of the members on Shift, show little to no respect to anyone and it gets old. So we didn’t see it in the pic, no need for name calling.

point taken. but i like the fact that they’re cheap and light. they work on some cars. to me they look alot more serious then other wheels.

cant go wrong with Torq Thrust II’s. They look good on anything.

And since Rangers and Mustangs share a bolt pattern theres a whole shitload of wheels to choose from.

Heavy? My car weighs just the same as my dads 1989 mustang GT. Sure it’s still heavy, but not as much as people make them out to be. Unreliable? I haven’t had one problem with my 3000gt yet (knock on wood) and as far as Sully’s build goes, it may be because he was using a single turbo, rather than twin turbo setup, like the car originally was made for. I don’t know much about his setup so I’m not going to rant about something I dont know. I like my car and that’s all that matters. You don’t have to like it, you’re not driving it.
