RE: New rims and finally lowered! Before and After pics:
okay, let's see...
they're the stock GT tires and wheels, 17 x 8 and 235/55/17
I thought about painting them myself, but the hassle of having no garage or experience painting rims or a place to let them dry... well, you know.
I got a great price on the set, so it made up for the high cost of the repaint.
And yes, I looked at 18's. The Ford ones I really wanted weren't available as take-offs and new ones were going to be well over $150 more per rim, since I'd have to buy not just new rims but new tires.

paint the spinners black, it will look a lot better that way...also I would suggest the american muscle 17x9", but I am pretty confident the spinners won't fit with those rims...however they probably have spinners that you can buy that will fit that rim...
the car looks alot nicer lowered

I dont really think those rims look good... Seems like it dirtys up an otherwise clean looking car. Anyways, nice ride, nice drop, just sharing some input with you.
