Nice, but, 20 foot tires? Your gonna need to lift rather than lower.

hey mlcrycc, do you have any more pics of the side of your car to show off the fact that mustangs with stock suspensions can still look good?


thanks in advance

Thanks, but it's all personal preference. I personally prefer not to lower, so going to the 40 series sidewall helps fill the wheel gap.....

I believe BF Goodrich makes the g-Force T/A KDW in 295/40/20 but they don't make the 255/40/20, you'd have to get a 255/35/20 up front. Nitto has also released the Invo that comes in 295/35/20.

Toyo also makes a 295/35/20 and 255/35/20 combo in the Proxes 4.

Seems like Toyo probably is staying in business by making all the crazy sizes that nobody else makes. I'd much rather have a set of Goodyear's or BF Goodrich over my Toyos.....Oh well.

mlcrycc, I still drool every time I look at the pics of your car. I'm ready to get new shoes, just contemplating whether I am going to get new rims or not.
