Which rims should I put the slicks on?
Got a set of 22*8-15" Micky Thompson slicks coming.
Whick set of rims whould you mount them on?
I have some ADR's (the silver ones) and Some Rota's (the darker ones) Both have fresh set's of azenies sports one them
I'm leaning towards mounting them on the darker rims...Because they would be less noticable.

Im the exact opposite. i would rather have the mean looking dark ones for the street, and the uglier ones for the track. NOt to say the silver ones are ugly, but the dark ones are awsome. how much did those run you?

Some say I trashed an rx7 with ford parts/ other say I trashed a ford with a rx7 body. But most think it is pretty neat.

I like the dark ones, but the silver ones have a bit more bling-bling, and match the car a bit better IMO...
Put the slicks on the dark, bad-*** looking rims for the track, and keeps the silver ones for the street to pick up the ladies
Or at least get the looks... if you're "Taken"

Much respect from me, got me interested actually.
Did you ever bring a thunderbird to windy hollow?
or maybe a mustang turbo?
I heard about someone driving a turbo ford something to the track from evansville and running 8's.
You going to rotary revo? Can't remember if I asked you.

I had a white 87 mustang coupe with about the same setup that ran high 7's at windy. Probaby made it there about 7-8 times 2 years ago. Had the rx7 there about 3 times last year.
And if I can get a few things done this weekend I am gong to try and be there on the 20th (next Saturday). I am pretty sure that is there first t&t day. Unless I get te car running really well, then I will be heading to BowlingGreen that day.
