Thanks for the advice everyone on tech talk and my buddies that picked up a wrench and two-gun for helping me till 3am last night to finish it!!Im going to try diffrent rims since this is my firt 5 lug on a car ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) pics...

While Pony wheels look good on a Fox, most of the 5 lug wheels look better.... IMO anyway.

thats nearly the same setup i went w/ my first 89 lx back in the late 90s. 94-95 polished cobras on a fox always look good.
