It's N/A, racing won't take you anywhere and with the body kit you'd be getting raped. Also, taking the picture up close does not justify that they are 10s. If you were to take a picture of the writing on the tire, where it gives you the sizing of the tire as well as a picture of the whole rear then it would probably justify your width much more.

I'll get all the pix y'all need.



as far as a turbo, needs a rebuild first. 170+ on her. and the last owner lied about 100% stock but the port/polish intake doubt it has that, as for as the constructive criticism.... I can take that... being called a lair, I can't handle that

i have a s4 lsd rear I was going by what she said. and I told everyone I had lsd... I was call a lair but someone can only go by what there told and now about my damn rim size... *****

yeah those are not 10 inch wide wheels bro,

10" wide wheels on 275/70/17 will not fit unless you did some serious fender rolling and by the looks of the wheels they look like mustang wheels

and i think ost of the mustang wheels been used on fc nowadays are 17x8-17x9

you car looks clean overall, if anything get a set of wheels that give you that "Look at me i am fast and a track ****" or " My wheel keep me updated on my baller status, et me check myself.........YUP i am still ballin bischhhhhhhhhh"

yup, they look more like 8's... i have 10's for my rear, i had to do some fender rolling and stretched tires. (some people will rip me a new one for having some stretchies) but i still got mine pretty flush with my fenders.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys but a wings supposed to have air go above it to create downforce.

Put a leaf on the top and if it blows off

I'm glad you don't have 10's in the rear on an n/a. Save your money and invest in a t2 motor, you'll be way more happier with spool than a useless wing. Trust me I drove an n/a for a while.

IMO go all out and make a race car, or keep your car clean and reserved. A clean old car like an FC is much more appreciated than an n/a with a wing and a body kit. If you want to change something get nice wheels, good fitment, and get that girl low.

OH

Here's what I'm doing currently, just for some ideas...

BN knockof kit from raceonusa.

I'm going with no wing at all.

I run 18inch 300c wheels daily with 215/35/18 rubber, and drift on 16inch wheels in the rear at the track. I think my wheels are pretty flush, but I just ordered 25mm spacers for the rear wheels. I love my CHROME wheels LOL, I think I will actually get them expanded during the winter. The 300c wheels are only 7.5 inchs wide LOL.

I had to go with a custom hood, since it's a V-mount

I did order a vented headlight cover (the tad of rice in me)

It's getting painted ROOTBEER BROWN w/rainbow flake LOL

http://www.raceonusa.com/index.asp?P...OD&ProdID=7357








A pic before I wrecked the car at the track

Now your on the "right" track lol

I'm not a fan of those front over fenders though.

I say do a t2 swap first, you will like it compared to your NA.
