Looks very good! How has a ride quality changed? And do you have any rubbing when making turns?

Nice! I've been considering these rims as well for my black '06. Do they have very much room around the calipers? I'm looking for a rim with some extra room for some stoptechs or brembos.

Nice choice of wheels and tires! I also like the stance. What springs are you using?

They look nice, though I dont know if I'd like the acceleration/handling penalty that goes with all that extra unsprung weight. They do look awesome though.

i have to ask, how much were tires? cause i went and got quoted at a local shop and the rear tires were going to be like close to 600$ and the fronts nearly 400 for the same set up. so bascially thats 1000 on tires plus wheel expenses, or was the tire guy smoking some good crack and just trying to rip me off?

Ill be honest with you all and tell you that i did not pay for these rims and tires, My mustang is being built for SEMA this show year. Alot of companies are on board to help sponsor the vehicle.

20" wheels?Why.For the bling factor?

Wheels that size won`t help performance at all.
Just wondering.

I just bought these wheels with tires through Discounttiredirect.com for $1780 shipped (I'm in Germany). Went with 18x8.5 (front) and 18x9.5 (rear) with Nitto 555s 255 front 285 rear. Although I wish they would have been sponsored for me too...

Even though they will slow you down a bit and effect braking...they still look good.

Still waiting on my new shoes
