Car looks amazing Steve. Keep it up, love the direction you are going. Keeping it OEM, just with a bit of your own style

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.

Steve I was just kidding man.

The car looks great.

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

The tires wouldn't look so bad in that pic except that I had just driven through a gravel parking area looking for a spot to take pics

**LowZX3on17s** · 06-15-2008, 11:17 PM

i love the wheels/tires.. looks great. makes me want to paint my svt 6 spokes black on my silver svt.

**Pappy** · 06-15-2008, 11:55 PM

Those also aren't painted wheels. Those are the True Ford Racing Black 5-Spokes (with SVT center caps). Thats why the wheels are shiny, they aren't dull like spray painted knock offs.

Ya know, I feel like a noob. I knew that Ford made the black EAP's, but I had no clue that they made the 5 spokes in black. I learned something. YAY!

**SidewayzS15** · 06-16-2008, 01:23 AM

The black wheels look great on there! I like the EAPs too though!

**CheckMyVitals** · 06-16-2008, 03:46 AM

Car looks great. I normally dislike the 5 spokes quite a bit (and love EAPs) but black rims look fantastic on this car. Maybe other black rims would look better... I dunno, but these definitely look much better than the dark argent EAPs. Maybe black EAPs?

**Dads03SVT** · 06-16-2008, 11:52 AM

So those are factory powder coated wheels?? I still want a set chromed....i was looking at the Centerline Storms..but they are crazy in price....Plus i want a Mach Lip...............

Remember I bought these wheels years ago, and they have long been discontinued thru Ford....

**Zx311** · 06-16-2008, 05:21 PM

dude that spider on the back window in that pic is scary looking!

**FORDSVTPARTS** · 06-16-2008, 10:20 PM

Bump for updated pics with properly sized tires.

Ford Racing made chrome 5-spokes, too (and white).

**Johnny_P** · 06-17-2008, 02:35 PM

looks good! How do you like the KW springs compared to the SVTs and Dynamics?

black wheels FTW

I like them a lot, They give the best ride height I've had yet and the handling is equal to or better than stock.

The Multimatic suspension gave far superior handling but a much stiffer ride and since I can't afford to go racing I went for looks and ride quality.

**Z63R** · 06-17-2008, 03:06 PM

Good God that looks hawt!

**bunksvt** · 06-18-2008, 01:06 AM

EAP's looked way better IMO

**pumkin_svt03** · 06-18-2008, 12:15 PM

Wana trade for my rotas?

**DJuanHouston** · 06-18-2008, 12:44 PM

Yes, Yes I do.

Rota's are my biggest weakness when it comes to wheels.

I love Slips on an SVT, they're 2nd only to Grids in my book.

I'd have to clear it with o2designs though as I promised him first shot at these if I ever parted with them.

I would seriously consider a swap though.

FAIL.

He wants a set of sports bronze grids.

(<--- your clue to, "I'm joking... a little...)

What size are your slipstreams? He wants a 16 X 7, 40 or 45 mm offset, with 63.5 centerbores... I'm ASSuming.
