GA Hey guys, here's my mint '90 GXL!

I just bought this car a while back. It's a '90 GXL (NA obviously) 2+2. Bought it from 2nd owner - first was a tire engineer at BFGoodrich (hence the G-Forces it came with!), and the second was an older man in his late 50's. Only has one small scratch, and the rest is super minty! Let me know what you think!

Hey guys, sorry for the late reply. I live in Oakwood/Gainesville. Up 85 near the Mall of Georgia. I've seen a red S4 with (7 spoke?) mesh-type wheels running around the Oakwood area as well, as well as a blacked-out primered '86 I believe. What about you guys?

Yeah, Brandon, the thread starter, is new to the rotary game, but he is catching up quick. He lives in the same apartment complex as me. Rx'7s are taking over the place!

Wow man, That is nice! Great find. I'm in Acworth with a '91 Convertible. Mine is in really good condition, but I think yours might be better! You guys ever have any club meets around? That's probebly in another section, I bet. I've only been in here and a little tech, so far, looking for info to get mine running. Well again, really nice. I'm going to have to look around this site somemore! C'yaz & Take Care!

Thanks for the input guys! I thought I'd share some pictures of my "new shoes" acquisition.

Now for the fun, although easy part - **NAME THAT WHEEL!**

255/45 on back, and I believe 225/35 on front.

Don't mind the dirty car, or the purple-ish haze over the pictures (cameraphone with a greasy lense). I definitely notice an increase in braking effort, they weigh a little more I suppose, and since it's larger wheel, I guess the mass isn't as centered as it was before. Makes it feel even heavier!

It needs to be lowered an inch I believe.

WOW! That is nice! Definately more aggressive than the stockers! As far as a guess goes.....well, they look familiar and with the "SVT" I would have to guess from a Muskrat (That's Mustang). I am interested to hear what they are from.
Looks good anyway! C'ya
