Putting Chrome 20 x 9 razors on my 07 GT.......Replacing the springs this week. Vogtland springs with GT500 upper strut mounts and D specs adjust. shocks. I was thinking of 255/35-20 front and 275/35-20 rear.
Anyone have pics with 20?

Thanks

i have the razors w/ 255/35 20 all around. i shouldve went bigger. i think the 275's in back are good. you can go 265 up front or even 275. the reason being, i curbed the rims a couple times already. if i had wider tires, they wouldve guarded the rims better, bc at 255 the rims stick out a bit.

How does your Stang ride with the 20x9 255? Is yours lowered? Black car hard too tell on my screen...I'm going with the 40mm off set. So they will not stick out.

my car still has stock suspension. the ride is ok, stiffer bc of the lower profile sidewalls, i can feel the pot holes more. it is a trade off, looks for ride comfort, but i would still get 20's again bc i like the way they look. the only thing i would change w/ these rims would be getting the 275/35 all around. i saw an article in 5.0 magazine w/ the CS8 mustang, just like the CS6, the rims were razors w/ 275/35 20 all around. thats what made me get the razors.

Nice car Stangzilla, the exhaust tips really stand out well with the black out treatment.
