If you think it wont be big wheels....then i hope you know some guys in the automotive industry who are designing these cars....they are being designed to accept bigger and bigger wheels. They have the 05 v6 mustang with a sports appearance package that comes STOCK with 19" wheels. And we are debating on 17-18" wheels But who knows where it will be in 20 years.

It's whatever that floats you boat. I have the original 17s on my Cobra and they fill the wheel wells very well but I lowered my car a couple of inches and installed Monroe shocks that are made for cars that have been lower 2 or more inches. She is tight, doesn't bottom out and handles rough roads. I prefer to have my car with a very low stance than a high stance which you will have with 18s. Peace

What is with people saying you will get a high stance with 18s? As long as the OD of the tire is still ~24" (or whatever stock size is...) then the stance shouldnt be much different. 20s is another story, but the difference between 18s and 17s is not that great. I guess it is big enough for some people to dislike though.

None of the cars pictured with 18s look like they have a high stance to me...
