i was debating a few things, just put tires on these wheels before I kill myself (I already had 2 of the 4 old tires blow out on me and one more was going to go at any second), get some 15" steelies and chrome them old American Grafitti style, get some 15" steelies and paint them red, or just go straight to the 17" or 18" wheels. I don't finish school till next week and I didn't have time to go hunting the junkyard for some steelies ortherwise would have done that at least. The main thing is that I can actually drive my car a good distance away from my house for the first time in the 2 years I've been fixing it I went on the freeway and it was so fun. I really need to do the suspension now I can tell.

What's wrong with 14s? I love the look of my original 14" Magnum 500s.

14's are fine and dandy. i was actually slightly sad when i gave up my 14's for my 16's the side difference wasn't much, i think next wheels i am going to purchase are 18x9 or 10's in back 17x7's on front.corse it will not fit a stock mustang..hopefully i can fit what i want after the modifications i make. but seriously there is nothing wrong with 14's .
