Small update. Ordered my wheels..may be somewhat disappointing to some as they're pretty basic but I personally have always loved these wheels. 18x9 18x10 Deep dish anthracite Cobra R's with Pirelli P Zero 255/35 and 285/35 tires. Fitment in the rears are :headbang:

DANG!!!! That's :hump:!
The fitment is totally right on!

Is that with the Fox width rear?

I did a ton of tire research lol. Found that Pirellis section width run about 1/2" wider than the Michelins I had. And the cobra r's are +22m et versus the +30mm my bullitts had. So I knew they would sit pretty aggressive which is exactly where I wanted them...yes fox length axles

Cleaned up and painted the tail light housings...new 87+ lenses. Looks so much better

Sounds like a deal!

Tony · Apr 18, 2018

haven't had much going on with the fox lately. Got a good deal on a set of cobra calipers from the all ford swap meet a couple weeks ago. Cleaned them up good and painted them using VHT Burnt Copper enamel and some VHT Clear

Same color i used on my wheels. Looks great brother!

RedTwilight · Apr 19, 2018

it would look good in copper

The engine bay looks immaculate, and you can't go wrong with copper calipers. The weather should be getting nice to finish up some body work and paint without having to blast the heater in your garage. Keep us posted man
