Lets have some fun with this. Saw this in another thread.

What is your absolute, #1 Fox body appearance modification. It can be on a stock car, or on a modded car, but you can only list one specific thing.

A set of wheels can make or break almost any car, so I guess I'd say a good set of wheels.

My favorite is when there are no appearance alterations. though I'll agree with @LILCBRA and say that the right set of wheels can really set a car off. My least favorite; a GT body kit on a coupe sends me into an uncontrolled murderous rage.

I like to add huge wings thru the bumper, plywood diffusers, a roof scoop, MUST have a GT bodykit on a coupe and 10 hole wheels. I can also tolerate adding fender flares that barely match.

Lowering springs, I think stock wheels look nice when the car is sat down on them

I really like the Maximum Motorsports strut tower brace. I like the styling of it and I think it always makes an engine bay look mean.

I don’t know if it’s my absolute favorite, but since I’ve had two cars with it, I’ll say the GT wing on either the 85-86 cars or the aero lx cars. It’s subtle, but sets it off as different.

If it was a direct swap, I’d consider putting the early fake louvers and smaller glass in.

I don't think you can have stance without wheels or vice versa.
I've seen stock lowered cars not look right and cars with nice wheels that look like a 4x4.
