Ok, so, my 03 GT, needs some wheels.

i have the sportline springs, with the 17'' bullitt wheels.
it looks......alright

but i want it to look nicer.

so heres my dilema, should i go with 17's or 18's. The 17's will look good, but the 18's should look better. However, they are heavier, i dunno whether it'll make it slower, like dramastically slower, and thats what im afraid of. Cause for now, i just want my car to look REAL good, but at least be quick.

SO, please give me some opinions, and pics of your NEW EDGES, haha, with your 17'' aftermarket wheels, and 18'' aftermarket wheels. and preferably deep dishes.

and for hints, im diggin the 18'' fr500's, and i know everyone and their mom has it on their mustang here on stangnet, but i have never seen it in my area.

Thanks guys

Maz

heres to get you started, there is about 31 pages of different rims and looks to everybodys mustang.

Going from 17's to 18's will not "dramastically" make your car slower. If you are gonna change your wheels definetly go with 18's in my opinion.

thanks, but i didnt think it would be a big deal for a quick request just to narrow it down. which is some sportlines with 18 inch wheels. I know theres 31 pages of mustangs with all kinds of wheels but im just trying to get an exact look of what mine can look like.

Skip the 17's and go right to the 24's.....

 

[mazen189]

id definately sport that.

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!! Those rotors look TINY!

funny I was on the same boat as you. There is only one thing that will make a diff, and thats the damn tires $$$$$!. 18 inch tires are hella expensive man, I went from stock bullit 17s to chrome DD 17s. the difference is insane! just cause they are 17s doesnt really make them look any less better than the 18s. I myself prefer the thicker tire on the 17s than the 18s. The car will look 100 times better with the wide 17x9front and 17x10.5 in the rear! I am completely happy I went with the 17s and wouldnt go with the 18s if I was doing it again, I just dont have the money for 18 inch tires, maybe you do IONO....

this was the last time i washed and waxed my car and posted it here.....clicky

i have replaced the front tires and replaced the passenger side fog light since then i also switched to HID's so no blue reflection in the headlight housing anymore

go with anthricite....cheaper than chrome....and they look sick on a black car. (i think your car is black)

you are right, tons of people on this board have fr500's. but i never see them on other mustangs around here even in my local club only 3 or 4 people have them.

I am gonna go with anthricite , Im not too big on chrome anyways, and my car is True Blue, but close enough, it looks black at night.

18's ftw. i paid $400 shipped for my wheels and $200 for all 4 michelin pilot sport tires(craigslist). the 18x10 w/new 285's wieghed 6 pounds more than my stock 17x8's with bald 245's.
