wheel size question
I was curious in knowing what wheel sizes were the best for the mustang, when I see mustangs w/18'' they look good, but some of them look weird, kinda like my 16'' with the rubber that consumes the wheel. And then there's some mustangs that have 20''s and they look good, but then again with the low profile tires that you hav to wear they look even weirder than the 16''s. The wheels I'm leaning towards are either the 18'' bullitts or the 20'' Shelby redlines.
If y'all hav any preferences/opinions, i like to know, and a question for those who r running 20'': with the low profile tires, does the car ride rougher, or does it feel more sensitive to ever crack in the road?
If you hav a wheel suggestion "i'm all ears" Im still looking for new cool looking wheels, pics are geud too!

20"s are too heavy. And most of them look like weird on our cars. I think I've seen maybe 2 Mustangs with 20"s that looked okay. Most of them look like toys.
18"s can be had in good looking, relatively lightweight designs. You can also wrap some nice (relatively) tall rubber around them so it doesn't look like you're trying to drive around on rubber bands.
A car like the Mustang (and I dare say just about EVERY car built) is designed to look good with the wheel wells filled with wheels AND tires, not just wheels. If there's no rubber in there it starts to look too much like a cheap toy.
