I guess a stock mustang on 20"s doesn't look too goofy but I would still drop it a 1.5" all round. I kinda like it sitting a little high in the rear.

Martin,
From one Mineral Grey to another, I thank you!! Imagine my surprise when I finally opened up the July 2006 issue of 5.0 Mustang to page 70, the article about the 05 Mineral Grey Roush, sporting the same Niche Rims....

Dan,
Mine is wearing Nitto 275/35/zr20's rear, and 255/35/zr20's in the front. They were on from the dealership, so, I really can't give you a good idea of cost. I can tell you, however, they are not worth the dealer mark up they were looking for!! (Nor did they get it!)

Mike

What your seeing is the "new" craze to hit the streets... People taking cars, usually older and bigger sedans, putting 22" to 24" wheels on them and jacking the car up a bit or else letting the wheels lift the car off the ground. Kinda looks funny to me... but to each his own.
With new rightfully being in quotes. Growing up as a kid, I can remember when having a cool muscle car meant jacking the rear end wayyyyyyyyy up in the air, with huge tires (not big rims, just huge tires) in the back, and much smaller ones in the front!

I also have 20's on stock ride height. But i do recommend upgrading brakes if you plan on putting more HP in your car with these size rims. My car is still stock and with the rims i have on if i really need to brake fast the pedal goes to the floor and it grinds like the ABS is on.

Here are a few shots of mine sporting the same Niche rims as mlcrycc except it's been lowered. It'll give you some idea between the lowered/not lowered look.
