In my opinion, 18 is as big as you can go on that body style...

18" wheels look good on a fox. Lots of people say they are too big but I disagree. They either have the wrong tire on them, or the car is either too high or too low. You need to have the right springs in there.

17s are the ultimate on a fox IMHO.

I like a little more sidewall. (Though, I have the stock 10 holes on my car, so...)

Lots of times I'm glad to be an old guy, where this sort of thing isn't even a consideration. My car doesn't need to look cool with the latest fad, it just need to run. Whew.

I am a fan of 17's, I think they are the perfect fit in the fox, however I will agree with that some and a slim some at that of the 18" variety do look good. It's all a matter of taste, but please for the love of god and the mustang community never ... EVER mention anything above that on a fox. Its horrid, and I kinda wanna plow my car into the idiots that do have them installed.

They look like ROH's but i can't remember the name of them. I don't think they make them anymore either.

17's are the best. You have 5 times the tire choices also.

20's=DONK They belong on 4 door caprice classics.
