    20" Cobra R Motorsports Rims

    honestly, 20's on mustangs defeat the purpose of a mustang, unless u drop it a lil then i woulndt do it, it raises the whole car up way higher then it should, iv seen this guy around here with 20's on his, and it sits a good 6-8 inches off the ground, if u want a lifted mustang, get a suspension...

    white top on white convertable?

    yea white tops are probably a bisnitch to keep clean...but i personally think ugh when i see a black stang with a tan top or a red stang with a white top, white on white looks way better, but..is it worth the sacrifice of keeping it clean...thats ur decision

    lowering springs

    2in drop with 18's will probably be pretty close to dragging ur tire on the wheelwell when turning, going with the eibach springs and just going 1.5 with 18's should set you pretty beefy with your stance...
