I have a black 2007 Mustang GT Convertible and I got an offer for new shoes for my ride: 20x10,20x8.5 with 275/30/20 and 245/35/20 N3000 tires for $1,400. Is it a good price?

I'm not thinking of lowering the car now, but I need to make sure that no rubbing will happen with the stock springs. What do you guys think?

You can buy used wheels for 1/2 that price...see the "Parts For Sale" section of this board.

I've got about 35k miles on a set of 255 N3000s. They're slightly past worn out. They've been fine tires for the road but they lack dry grip and they're less than exceptional in the rain. I was buying new wheels and I couldn't afford both the wheels and good tires at the time. Like I said they're fine tires but if you plan on doing any autocrossing or anything look for something grippier.

I paid $96 a tire for the N3000s so that puts you at roughly $250 a wheel which seems a little high but not totally out of line.
