Just run the steelies in the winter, then use those in the summer, at least there wont be so much shit caked on.

LOL!
Thing is I have 6 of em'.....
I had picked up 2 more which happened to have a like new set of studded snows on them.
After about a week the brake dust starts building up on the fronts.

[91grandmarquis]

Yeah my summer rims are full faced so there won't be any brake dust, and I try to wash and detail my car once a week in the summer, and as much as humanly possible when the mercury drops.

Some older pics from when I first got the car.

OOoo....5.0 HO sitting in a 1990 lincoln mark IV parts car (in my back yard)....MUAHAHAHA




Okay......that should be enough pic whoring for a while......

[1990LTD]

man it looks weird with the numbers on the speedo flipped around

[andymac0035]

^^^ I think the same thing when I see yours.

[andymac0035]

Finally got a break from mother nature(!) and got my rear sway bar on.
I havn't really driven it enough to say how much of an improvement it's made, but I do notice a difference.

Drilling the 2nd set of hole was a royal pain, but it sure felt good to get it done (that 90 deg drill elbow just paid for itself).

[91grandmarquis]

Looks good. Your jack setup scares the hell out of me though.

[andymac0035]

I was VERY nervious crawling under there myself.
But if you notice in the 2nd pic, the rear frame rails are well supported by 6-ton jackstands sitting on the concrete walkway.
(the front wheels were chocked too)

[91grandmarquis]

Yeah I saw the jack stands after, usually those are pretty sturdy. I always ramp my car when I can, if not its jack stands and wood blocks up to the frame (just in case).

[andymac0035]

Yeah I agree on the ramps, but in this case they would be in the way, and also I needed the rear axle to droop down.

[91grandmarquis]

Interesting, I ramped mine for the bar because I wanted a load on the suspension to see for fit. I then had my brother bounce each corner. You do have a different setup though.
