17" Mustang GT wheels? Do you have the sport brakes??? I didn't think 17" would clear the calipers.

Yes I do have sport brakes..and they actually didn't. I put a 5mm spacer on and they cleared by like 2 millimeters..no lie. I guess the wheel caves in slightly towards the outside of the wheel. but they worked great :tup:

Damnit! I wish I had known this before I bought my 18" saleen wheels and 275/35/18 BFG DRs... I would like a bigger sidewall.

Yeah these have like scary grip. I was scared to break something launching any more than 3k.

Well should have some updates soon. Ordered Full Carbon fiber aerojacket kit and got a good deal on Varrstoens I couldn't pass up. Color is a surprise right now ;)

If you end up wanting to sell your sport wheels let me know!

Flushnismo 07-12-2011 10:02 AM

Just got my zenclosure 12" box in yesterday. Looks and fits perfect :tup: Rick at VipStatus contacted me yesterday also and said my aerojacket kit was on the way. :happydance:

lol..i'm hoping the lip is at least more than an inch or two off the ground or it'll be gone in a few days. I rarely touch my factor chin spoiler on anything so I'm hoping i'll be okay. Plus when my wheels get here with that +12 offset in the front I might have to raise it a little anyways. Trying to get a decent camera so I can get some real shots! :tiphat:

How long did it take from ordering the Aerojacket kit until Rick said it shipped? Just curious after the fiasco that's been going on with the Venaci wheels.

LOL I'm very much part of that fiasco with my wheels.. I still haven't got them after 6 months.. :shakes head: but I ordered the kit about 2 months ago and he just now got it. I think he orders a few kits at once and then ends up being out of stock for awhile. I ordered when he was out of stock. So..about 2 months. He gave me a huge discount though for waiting so long for everything...so it all worked out. :tiphat:

Flushnismo 07-18-2011 05:21 PM

Got bored waiting for my rims so I painted my stock wheels metallic grey.. :tup:

I just used Satin black Krylon fusion(3 coats no clearcoat) and ordered from automotivetouchup.com to get the blue that matched my paint code.(3 coats of color and 3 clear) I didn't use any primer. I also painted the top amber bulb and smoked color with some vht nightshades I had laying around. :tiphat:

ahhh...you caught me :icon18: lol

Your car as always been my inspiration. :tup: The rear add-ons were decent..they don't follow the rear lines above the exhaust perfectly.. but the front lip fitment was terrible. I was pretty disappointed with the lip. How did your lip fit? Oh and you're probably going to hate me when you see the wheels I got.. :p

drivers side rear addon was horrid. front fit was almost dead on except for a spot under the headlights where theres a 1mm gap or so.

and, hate, depends...
