Not right now, but right before the snow, when it was still clean.


Put on the winter setup and gloss/sealant/wax. Thanks to [MENTION=129]PCA-1[/MENTION] for the Pro-Rally wheels. Great customer service!
Those wheels look awesome, I may have to get those for the winter! I was looking into the sparco terras but I think those look better.

I could answer that in a serious way, but this thread would stop being fun, and would quickly become political. ;)
Lol...I probably could too, but I get too much political debate on FB, gotta keep this thread fun.

Sucks to have left northern NV when it was 8 degrees at night a month or so ago and walking the dogs in AZ in a tee shirt today:)

I have been in places where 3 ft of snow in a week did not even matter there was so much already.
Yeah different places handle it differently. A lot of the I-95 corridor runs into space problems, and some (especially DC), don't get that sort of snow often enough to budget resources for it on a yearly basis. Analyzing the storm, it actually comes out as the biggest snow storm DC has ever gotten (even though "official" numbers don't say that). Pretty insane.

So we had a small storm:



My car looked the same; kona blue with black wheels and covered in snow. My fiance helped me shovel it out and wasn't being careful and put a 6 inch scratch along my drivers side door [bawling]. I'll wait until this winter is over as I'm sure I'll have more touch ups to do.

question,

do you think a 17 x 9 with 20mm offset would be too wide for the fiesta? the 93 mustang five stars resemble the tarmac but are a lot more affordable, as they are all over kijiji where i am, they are a 4 x 108 bolt pattern but are 2" wider... I'm a modding nub and don't quite understand how the width/offset affect the look/handling of the car yet. Any input would be great.

Edit: just found another that is 17 x 8 with 28mm offset (same look) also mustang. maybe better?

No way either of those are going to fit w/o a full on custom fender setup. The setup you gave would net around 1.1 inches extra (outward) fro offset a lone then you are adding more lip area as well with a 9" (or even 8) width.

To give you an example.. the widest I've seen was an et35 setup and that was on a 15" wheel. Major camber and suspension adjustments had to be done to make that work even.

Sounds like you're describing the saleen style reps. The offsets won't fit a stock car, but the hub bore is the same @ 63.4. Keep an eye on the M2 Motoring fender flare thread. I think those offsets will probably match up really well with the M2 flares. http://www.fiestastforum.com/forum/threads/7074-M2-Motoring-fender-flare-interest-possible-group-buy!

Thanks! That look is almost exactly what I was thinkin, but it would require quite a bit of suspension work ya?
