If you don't mind my asking, what width are those rims and what offset are they? I am looking to get some wider 18 inch rims myself and I am not sure what offset to get.

Thanks

Black is slick indeed. Good stealth for the cops.

The only thing that used to bum me out about black when I had a black car was that I could never keep it looking clean. Either it was dusty or you'd see build up on the rear fenders.

The biggest pain was water spots. I could never get rid of them. But that was when I had a crappy Toyota Celica from 1987.

ALL stangs are awesome!

what I meant was that the rims I chose don't look that good on most colors on any vehicle,
I originally ordered the Silver '05, and got the Black one because I didnt wanna wait ,,, IF I would have got the silver one I wouldnt have chosen the Enkei rims I have now,

What size (width) tires did you end up getting? Did they make a difference in traction and handling?

I went with the 10"
as fasr as traction and handling, yes, it's more sensitive but only when it's raining,,, the ride is pretty much as smooth as it was with the stock one's,,,
