My wheel chart here:
http://www.dodgestang.com/Tire Fi...uide 65-6.pdf

Contains just about everything you need to know. The only thing it does not have is pictures but it tracks the suspension mods, the tire size, the tire brands, brake mods, and any other things of importance.

www.americanracing.com has an option where you can choose your vehicle on their site and then experiment with different wheels/sizes/car heights. It is pretty cool.

They are boyd timeless II, cost alittle over a grand for just the wheels. Plus you have to wait for like a month or so to get it. Boyd wheels are made to order. I'm actually thinking about goin to 18's all around, but that wouldn't be any time soon cause i have too many projects going on with this car right now. So, don't want to sell.
