Default which wheels should I get????

hey guys. i am in desperate need of new tires and I am seriously thinking about buying the rim/tire combo from like cruizin concepts or some other place. I think I want to drop down to 17's. I really like the way red cars look with black wheels. What do you guys think? any suggestions on what yall think would look good on my car?

i just called cruizin concepts and the guy i talked to said to stay with 18's because the 17's look too small. i guess everyone will have a different opinion. If anyone has pics of a red stang w/ black wheels please post them.

don't ruin the Roush 18" Roush wheels. If you want something different pay 6hundo and have the rears widen'd.

He was saying to keep the roush rims and just pay $600 to have them widened.
say from the 18x10 widened to a 18x11 or so.

I agree. Keep the Roush wheels...not many people have them. I would be pretty cool to look into widening the rears.

*If the rears are already 18x10...then I wouldn't fuss with widening them, just get a good tire for it.

i have no idea where the topic came up of me wanting to widen the rear, lol. I need new tires. I have 295/35/18 on the rear now and they are freaking outrageous in price. On the front I have 265/35/18. I was told to drop down to 245/40/18 on the front and 285/35/18 on the rear. Nitto 555's from cruzin will cost 620.00 plus 50.00 for shipping. then i need to pay to have them mounted/balanced. I guess this will be the cheapest route for me.

im getting bored with the Roush...anyone have a 03 Cobra they want to trade for a little while, lol.
