How do Wheels Look On Your Car? Try American Racing!

I was looking at the American Racing web site looking at old style 200S wheels for a Cougar project of mine and I saw an area in their web site that I thought everyone could have fun with. They have a section in their website where you can get a picture of a car and put any style American Racing wheels on it to see how it would look before you ever buy the wheels. It is a really slick area of their web site. You are allowed to change the color of the car and lower it on the wheels. I was playing around with a red 1967 Shelby and it was a lot of fun playing around with bling-bling rims or a ground scraping low rider. American Racing makes a lot of popular and good looking wheels like the Torq-Thrust II and a Mini-lite version wheel called the Silverstone. If you have a vintage Mustang, Shelby or Kit Cobra and you wanted to see what would look better the Torq-Thrust D or II wheels this might be what you are looking for.

Go to www.americanracing.com.

Select the "What Fits?" application guide icon.

Select car make. (Ford)

Select model. (Mustang 8 Cyl. 1965-1973)

Pick any wheel you want. (Series 105 for instance.)

Pick a wheel size. (15x7)

Then underneath the wheel pick the link SEE THIS WHEEL ON A CAR and you can start playing.

I don't know who this Software firm is, Autoware Technologies that made up wheel match to car guide for American Racing but they must be more computer geeks than they are Mustang enthiasts. The listed 1968 GT500 Shelby is really a 1967 Shelby and the 1969 Mustang is really a Shelby. I didn't go through them all but there are other errors. But regardless of the errors it is fun to play on this link with cars, colors, wheels and lowering the body. Give it a try and see what you think.

Kind of cool program. But would you really change your stock wheels for
custom wheels on your Shelby? Great for the Cougars and Stangs.

Oh! I got the Car back yesterdays after a 4 week $10,000 make over under
the body. Christ I thought the thing handled well and drove great before.
Unbelievable difference in performance and handling.not a squeak. Those
three chamber Flowmasters sound fantastic.as well. fairly quite at idle
until you jump on it a bit. Toooooo much fun!
