Default Choosing the right Rims+Tires?

I need some help guys. I have a v6 Cherry apple Red mustang. I mainly need help on deciding what kind of Tires and Rims to go with. No idea what size rims and tires to get that look nice and offer great performance thats under 1.5k with tires included. Whats the best size rims to get w/o slowing the car down? Also if someone knows a good website, please post. Thanks

Check out americanmuscle.com
I'd go with 18" CHROME rims with your car.
There are many choices out there so find the ones you like most and get em.

You can go to your local discount tire if you have one and get pretty much any kind of american racing rim. I paid $1800 for my razors and nitto's but you could get that under $1500 if you went with something other than Nitto's probably.

Stick with 18"s, I wouldn't reccommend chrome (personal opinion i think polished looks better).

I'm thinking about going 18"x9 on all four wheels. What do you all think about that? I'm putting serious thought into getting these Rims..
