I need opinions fellow brothas!!

[Forseth]

OK so I finally got on my bullits and they look great but the space between the tire and fender is like looking at a person with a really big hairy mole on their face (I need to fix it!!!)

soooooooo... based on the pictures i'm posting and the bbk longtubes i'm installing what can I get away with that closes that gap but doesn't affect the lt's on mild bumps/inclines?

I tried to do a little searching around but couldn't find any info on this and plus I love to hear all of your opinions, it makes me feel like I getting somewhere on the choices i'm making for my "555" baby!!!

i've heard you'll be ok w/the typical spring drop w/the long tubes if you take it easy over the bumps...

 

[realitygt]

i got lt's and from everything i've been looking at sportlines and h&r ss are the lowest, and with those you can get away with it, but it's gonna be really hard, going sideways and 2 mph over speed bumps, potholes... etc.

so i'm planning on lowering it only 1.5"-1.75"(eibach pro, h&r race) instaed of the 2"-2.25" drop (sportlines, h&r ss)

I went with Stangsuspension.com and got the 2in drop and mine looked great on my 18's, but after I put my MAC LT headers on I had to get 1.5'' springs cause i was scraping them on speedbumps no matter how slow I crawled over em. I am good now, only every now and then do i scrape em, but as long as I dotn have my head up my 3rd point of contact i am good to go.

Yeah I think I'm going to go with those, I've seen a couple pics with them and they look good :thumb:

Tokico blues if you are on a budget, get fox body ones.

dont 4get your cc plates...i'm glad my install got delayed my cc plates are now on the way

 

[1996mustangGT]

i have the sportlines and no cc plates :dunno: no problems at all.

 

[Forseth]

Yeah thanks for the reminder about the cc plates. I believe I'm going with the MM's after some research it seems to be the best buy for durability, etc.

and for IAER, I have a feeling those were 18's I'm hoping my 17's will still look halfway decent, otherwise I'm buying 18's and sacrfice some ride quality.

as for the cc plates, say i were to put them in would i beable to take them to a shop to get them aligned electronically (your average joe shop)?

thanks again guys
