Here are the mounting straps ready to be fastened on. This mounting kit came with the four rivets and four lock-nuts that you see below. I shot some black paint on the straps before I nailed them down. 
 

 

 

Here you can see the fan mounted and I didn't have any leaks either. Mounting the fan this way is much better than if you went through the fins of the radiator because the other way could end up causing leaks at one time or another. I already know what leaks are all about and don't want to see that movie again. 
 

 

 

I had to use the flash to see the fan behind the grill because when the grill isn't in direct sunlight, you can't see behind it. This fan is hooked to the fan-relay along with my 185 degree temp sensor but I may put in a switch to manually turn the fan on and off when I want. The next time I drive it, I'll be able to see if the switch is necessary.
 

 

 

Here is the style of wheels I went with which are made by Billet Specialties. This is a 15 X 12 and the style is a GTX01. They are an all aluminum wheel with a 4 3/4 offset. Now these aren't a very busy wheel like some are but you can see through the centers to show off all the disc brake rotors. Let's take a look at them mounted on my tires.
