That is one of the hottest FT86s around! Those Works are working wonders on her!

Job well-done indeed

I know the lateral side to side bar is doubled but one is a three point time the firewall.

I just have to say that those wheels are damn sexy...I think the stretch is a little too extreme for my taste but i understand that to get that stance you gotta stretch.

I just cant do white wheels where i live, too much dirt and dust in Phoenix...I'd be cleaning those wheels every day, its already bad enough that i have to clean my car every couple of days...

The wheels are interesting. It looks like the white on the car is different than the wheels. Were the wheels color matched or are they just white? I think the difference would drive me crazy.
