Hi guys. I'm brand new to this. I don't have a Mustang yet. I am going to purchase an '06 GT.

I've seen 20" rims on a new GT and they looked AMAZING. I was just wondering if anyone knows what exact size 20" rim and tire would fit comfortably with the car lowered a couple of inches.

Thanks for any help guys!

I'm not sure, but just don't go any bigger than 20" because then you're approaching bling status

Sam,

Those are EXACTLY the wheels I was looking at buying. Mustang Tuning, right? Are they on your car, or is that someone else's?

Don't forget to upgrade the brakes IF you in fact go to 20" wheels.

i wouldnt go bigger than 19s, i myself am getting 18s, the design of the mustang doesnt look right with the big rims with rubber band tires, since it is a retro looking car IMO.

Eric,


They're on my car. I got them from Bones Enterprises. JLperformance sells them as well. OEwheelsdirect also. You're up in Everett... I'd be willing to hook up with you, if you wanted to see them in person.

20s are to 2005s as 18s are to 2004s.

Go for the 20s!
