Just had time to snap a quick few before my girlfriend took off with it to work, but here's a couple of pics of the new wheels and tires. AFS Mach 1 18x9 wheels with BFG GForce TA KDW 255/45YR-18. Got the caliper paint, just haven't had the time. Probably will do that Sunday. Steeda high velocity air intake, SCT XCal2, short antenna, and 4.10:1 gears should be here by Friday.

Did the ride quality go down with the 18s?

A little bit, yeah, but not near as bad as 18's or 19's. They're worth it to me. I mean, ride quality isn't something Mustangs are known for anyways. The live axle kinda ruins that, but not that I mind. I have my Magnum for ride quality, the Mustang is for fun.

edit: whoops, meant 19's or 20's.

thanks, yours look good too. I was going for more of a retro look, so that's why i got the machined face on black.
