My new grille and wheels Im gonna get for 86 TC

Here are the wheels I plan to get for my 86 TC. I was going to do the 5 lug swap but this wheel is so nice why bother! It will allow me to just keep all my existing stuff including my 10 holes. so that if I want to slap slicks on my ten holes and go to the track, I can. I can also retain my aluminum spare.

I am going with the 17x8 and the 17x10 rear. I would go to the 17X9 up front but I think it will stick out and I dont like that.

They are the SC series 576. Check them out

Also here is my new grille.

I want people to be able to see my FMS IC setup plus its cool. LOL!! I will paint the mesh black and put either a ford logo in the middle or a 92 SC Tbird in the middle. Most likley a ford logo since the tbird logo will still be on the top of the grille.

Maybe even no mesh and a floating Ford logo. Watcha think?

Oh! Here is the one I made for my last 86, but with a billet grille

DVP, it looks cool in chrome! Im going to stick to the base body color though. I do like the chrome emblem on yours too. Keep the ideas coming guys!

Hey RDOG, any progress on your mesh grill? I'm thinking about doing the same thing one day.
