18s or 20s???

I know what you mean. But I still think 18's look better than 20's. Those cars do look good, but would look better with 18's. Everyone is certainly entitled to their own opinion, but when I compare the 2, the 18's always come up the winner.

I say 18 although 20's look O.K. on the s197 as long as you have supporting cosmetical mods like a eleanor bodykit etc.

The white mustang that gearbanger put up above looks at home with those rims. It has the supporting mods to pull the look off. So does the blue shelby.

I still say 18's though, cheaper, lighter, probably hook better.

I say 20s. this is our GT-500 with 20x9 on front and 20x10.5 on rear.

I gotta go 20's also, but I was also lookin into 22" Torq-Thrusts they just look too big though. I know what you mean though about certain cars only needing to have a certain wheel. I think my New Edge car would just look stupid with anything bigger than 18's and 17's on a Fox look just about perfect. I want to find a nice 20" Thrust wheel that doesn't have those rivets made into it. I just want a nice charcoal gray spoked 20x10/20x9 kit and can't find one besides Am. Racing that cost a fortune............Anyone?

American Muscle's Bullitt wheels don't have the rivets.

I just checked them out pretty good price too. What size tires are you guys runnin with a 20x10.5 20x9 combo with a 2" drop?



That 500 would look sick with some black Saleen wheels on it!!!!!!!!!!

we are running 315s on the rear and 285s up front.

I think 18's look too small and have 20's. When it comes to paying for the tires, the 18's win though!

20's over 18's all day if you can afford it. There are so many lightweight options available plus 20's allow enough sidewall on your tires to maintain a respectable level of ride comfort as well. Don't be fooled by some of these ultra conservative all-go, no-show muscle car freaks and baby boomer Mustang cornballs who still think 14" Cragar 5 stars are the cats meow.

The 2nd car isn't even a GT plus it features one of the softest colors available on the Mustang and it still looks better! But at least compare apples to apples my friend. How about posting 2 GT's, one with 18's razors and another with 20" razors. The difference is considerable.

18's look better every time. Here we go. Same wheels 18 vs 20. See what I mean.

I'm no show? Have you looked at my signature? Really? Dubs belong on donks and whips. That's all I'm saying. And your arguement is that one is a GT and one is a V6 and the colors are different? Come on. Yes, it comes down to personal preference. But more people will say 18's than 20's.

I kinda of have to agree. To me the 18's look really disproportioned almost as if the wheel is as wide as it is tall, or maybe its the deep dish that throws it off. Either way the wheel looks to small for the wheel well.

Case in point - have you seen the 18" Razors vs. the 20"s. The 18's look ridiculiously small.

I can't justify myself to spend extra $$$ to get a wheel 1" larger in dia. from what came standard from the factory (at least on mine). If your going to do it go w/ the 20"s

Just curious why don't they make a 19" Bullitt wheel??? Not to many tire sizes in 19???

Easy on the Windveil Blue comments there hitting close to home, ah I don't care the ladies love it! I need a W. Blue with charcoal 20" Thrusts picture posted. I am getting antsy and the car is in storage for the winter.
