I got new tires for the Mark so I decided to give it a bath, and the weather was nice so I got some new pics. The tires are 235/60-16 spoogeho Solus KR21s.

Thanks everybody. Cougar86_89 I'll let you know how they do. So far I can tell you that they have nice turn in, they're quiet, and they have good traction. The warranty on these tires is 85,000 miles which is quite a bit. Everything that I read on Tire Rack said they have good treadwear.

I did the swap. The manual pedals came out of a 1986 Mustang, but any manual fox body pedals from 83-93 will work except 87-88 Turbo Coupe pedals. I think they're different because of the hydraulic clutch.

Looks nice! Can't say I agree with the stickers but I give props for not sticking them all over the outside of the car! LOL I agree, wheels look good

Wow, first post huh? I'm guessing you've seen my car before?

Let's just say that polished lightweight racing wheels and daily driving don't go so well together. :giggle:

Thanks, I think turbines look pretty plain when they're gray, but painting them black really makes a big improvement imho. It's like they have an 80's aftermarket wheel look.

I have been thinking about getting a set of 96-97 Mustang Cobra rims when I can. I've seen them on Marks before, and I think they really fit the car nice.

As an aside, I thought that LSC turbines were made by Ford, but they weren't. LSC turbines were actually made by a British driveline/wheel manufacturer called GKN.
