Sure, it's the Fontana Village Resort. :tup:

In the Mid-Atlantic sub forum there should be a ZDayZ 2012 thread with the dates of the event.

It was funny though. the first two z's that showed up parked away from me...then everyone else chose to part around the stang rather than with the other z's

do it....I'm trying to debate if gold f14s would look OK over the brembos

Don't act like you've never seen Hook! Great movie.

I think gold F14s would work just fine. The Brembos are black with red lettering, so they will look fine, especially since your car is black.

If you get the F14s how soon do you think you'll get them?

I'll probably get them when the stock tires wear out. go to 9.5s all around. trying to figure out if I can fit 18s

9's all around. amazing the car can go as fast as it does without fat rear tires.

ordered CCWs for the S. Suffice to say I never got a set that worked :ugh2:

I know 18s are better performance wise but it think they will look minuscule on that thing!

nice. i'd be torn on the nismo though because the stockers are so nice.

what color scheme are you going with?

yeah, i'm not really a big fan of that styling personally, but eh...

yeah, i'm kinda nervous about that. my 18s looked pretty small on my z even...and even the 19s look small on this thing...

I suggest you rotate front-to-rear every 5,000 miles for optimium life. Because of the rear axle on the Mustang the outside edge of the tire tends to wear a bit more especially if you drive like we do. The fronts wear evenly. If you rotate them it should be good for 12-15,000 miles. Otherwise you're going to get maybe 8k out of the rears.



If you do some searching 18"s look fine on the car as long as you're lowered with a beefy sidewall. Obviously function over form in that case.

If you want to do suspension stuff to the car you want to talk to Sam Strano... he's a multiple time SCCA national champ and is destroying AutoX with his 5.0. He runs 315s on 18x10 (or 18x10.5... can't remember) all around. :eek:

Me... I'm just going to replace the Pirellis with 275 Michelin Pilot Super Sports all around... unless I get a new set of wheels.

Dan, I've been a slacker and had not noticed your thread on the new 5.0. Congrats man! I know you've been working on something between the 5.0 or a Bimmer. Its sharp! Guess we won't be seeing you at Z Nats though eh? Either way, thats one nice looking Stang!

I will still be out for Zdayz, etc, though.

Thanks! Get your SL's yet?

Sorry I won't be able to see you and the new Stang when you're up in D.C. Glad to hear we'll see you next year for ZDayZ. I'll try and remember to bring your fold up chair!

The SLs are still enroute. I figure mid-October arrival and then shipped here by end of the month.
