That does sound like a sweet setup. Here in Dallas, the striped louvers were popular in the late 70's thru the 80's. None of them did it on a Mustang. I've got to see it when your done.

Cool! Always exciting to get new parts in. When I had mine done, discount tire told me $15-20 per tire to mount and balance, so $60-80. I never went anywhere else though, I got mine done for free by a friend.

+1 The shop where I get my tires includes mount & balance in the price, but that amount is what they would charge if you brought in tires that were not from them, as is your case.

Great rims!!! Isn't it nice how they seem to pull the whole car together!!! I just had rims put on last week - and it was the greatest thing to happen to my car so far!

Congrats and nice work - keep on modding! (BTW - I would look into a $80 American Muscle intake instead of the K&N one...)
