I bought my shelby Redlines about a month ago and have been waiting for the tires to come in. i originally ordered NT05's, but they were on backorder for a month and i finally broke down and went with the 555's. I am glad now that I did, Nitto doesn't have a 285/40-18 so i was going with a 295/45-18, which would have been too 70's jacked up hot rod looking. Anyway, ended up with 255/45-18 front and 285/40-18 rears. These wheels are hard to find and you can't get 18's in black anymore, which is really what i wanted.

I may end up eventually getting the gunmetal part powdercoated black. anyway, I know the car needs lowered. I have some koni yellow shocks here right now and i ordered some steeda sport springs, J&M camber plates, and an adjustable pan hard bar that will be here Monday. Anyone know a reasonable place that does a decent job to get the suspension stuff installed. I've had quotes of $350 and up, which sounds a bit high to me. Pics are bad, was too hot and tired after putting the the tires to pull it out and clean it up.





















Just took some better pics, cleaned the car up and left teh garage :)
