New shoes for Fathers day-lots O pics - Focaljet

**FORDSVTPARTS** · 06-15-2008, 09:36 AM

I've been waiting to update you guys officially on mods until I got the new wheels and here they are.

Over that last couple weeks I put in all new SVT dampers with K-W drop springs, Laminexed the fogs and now the wheels.

I still have to get my 215-45-17's mounted as these are 215-40's.

On to the pics.

This is one of the last pics with the old EAP's,

On to the black 5 spoke goodness,

Picked up a hitch hiker apparently,

Almost forgot the new Mondeo shift knob

Updated with the correct size tires,

Huge thanks to o2designs for the hook up on the wheels and also to Pappy for letting us swap them in his driveway!!

i love those rims

**whiteboyslo** · 06-15-2008, 09:43 AM

honestly, i dig the multi-spokes a little more. but it's nice to vary it up from time to time.

**jimbone** · 06-15-2008, 09:46 AM

looks great!!

**j20000** · 06-15-2008, 09:57 AM

Looks good...but I think it will look alot better once you get a little more sidewall on there. It will help close the wheel gap.

The EAP's looked good but cleaning them was no fun

Besides I have a thing for black wheels.

**05TronZX3** · 06-15-2008, 10:50 AM

the car looks great with both wheels

what are you planning on doing with your eap's. because if your planning on selling them you have a potential buyer here

**MEANSVT** · 06-15-2008, 10:57 AM

looks great man.

**RUN_ZX3** · 06-15-2008, 11:42 AM

I like the black 5 spokes better than the EAP.

**focus-blue** · 06-15-2008, 12:03 PM

Looks really good Steve. The EAP's ARE a pain in the rear to clean, but I do love them. I have an extra set of 5 stars that I was thinking about painting black, hmm, maybe I will. Keep up the SVT goodness!

Those are already taken care of....

I'm so glad my wheels went to a good home...I've had a long history with those...first set of wheels I put on Chromie back in 05...

I love em Steve...I'll upload my pics I took and get them up...

**01focuszx3** · 06-15-2008, 12:06 PM

5 spoke black rims look waaaay better on your car!

**PhoneheadSVT** · 06-15-2008, 12:12 PM

Hey Steve, car looks good with the new wheels.

**Pappy** · 06-15-2008, 12:19 PM

Ricer.

**o2_designs** · 06-15-2008, 01:58 PM

**Stolle** · 06-15-2008, 02:07 PM

true. but hey. ricers unite in Minnisoda anyways.

you major 3 = 3 kings of ricerness. hahaha

**Pappy** · 06-15-2008, 03:14 PM

I think where o2 took those pics looks familiar.... oh wait that's in my driveway hahahaha

**elderfeces** · 06-15-2008, 03:20 PM

Looks great Steve, makes me really miss my SVT.

**focuspl99** · 06-15-2008, 03:50 PM

gosh that center exit exhaust= the hotness

Although i must say i was also a fan of the old rims more (what can i say i had the same ones lol) NICE car though

**davlafont** · 06-15-2008, 07:16 PM

Not feelin' it. Black wheels, especially that glossy, are crying for black glossy tires.

But the shift knob... THAT's HAWT!

**FORDSVTPARTS** · 06-15-2008, 07:17 PM

Thanks guys, Now I just have to get my tires mounted up and I'll be golden.

I also need to figure out how to get my car to sit like it is in o2designs pics, Four wheels with tires mounted has a way of lowering the rear end.

**DoctaBeat** · 06-15-2008, 07:19 PM

I would like the new wheels more if they were less shiny. They look really great, but so do the EAPs.

**Reza** · 06-15-2008, 08:17 PM

are you running Kumho MX steve? maybe you are not a pussy after all.

your car looks great man

**Tugboat** · 06-15-2008, 09:05 PM

Awesome, nuff said.

Hey Reza, If you're ever in town I'll take you for a spin on my favorite tree lined two lane and see who the pussy is

The MX's were O2designs old tires, I like them and I wish I could afford a set of summer and winter tires but with my financial situation I have to run all seasons so my Ecsta ASX's will be going on soon.
