Bingo TLDaddy! For the Mustang! 17X7's 4" backspacing.. Probably going to mount 225/40's up front, and 245's in back..
American Racing Torque Thrust II's, Polished Aluminum, not chrome..

I actually had the same wheels..but in 16X8.. Two of them were destroyed in an accident.. I let my friend use them on his mustang(the pic below) and someone cut him off pretty bad and the streets were damp, he lost control, and his choice was to either slam into two cars, or the curb..he chose the curb, so two of the rims wer badly damaged...one of the two could have been fixed, the other one can be fixed, it would look perfect,, but the dude said u will feel vibration at higher speeds due to whatever he would have to do.. I was on Ebay, found a guy selling 16x8's emailed him, figured I'd buy two more, he had other sizes, ended up getting 17x7's instead..So now I have two 16x8 wheels that I dunno what to do with..

BTW, the camber on the rear of the car is not off... I took a pic with my digital camera of a photo I had of his car, and the picture paper was curved, so it looks that way..

You bought new wheels instead of a new TL-S?!

What kind of inspiration is that

Damn Ed, I know you told me you had a Mustang, but you didn't say it was BADASS. I never really got into Classics but every now and then I'll see one or two I like, this Mustang is definately one of them. NICE!!!!!
