They are nice rims but they look like they belong on an infinity or something
just my opinion
its a cool little trailer probably good weight for the stang...you wouldn't catch me towing anything with my stang but thats just me
i have an 07 Chevy Tahoe i use for pulling my stuff to the desert but then again i go to Glamis so my mustang would get stuck in a second in the sand lol

no bashing here, I see sports car pulling things like that all the time....you just need to pay attention when driving in the dirt and stuff to make sure you don't drive in an area where you could get the car stuck (as I'm sure you already know)..
rims look good, there are a few members on here with them.

For dirt i would avoid the lower profile tires
the more tire you have the more the rim is protected
with low profile tires not only do you risk getting stuck, the dirt may scratch or remove the shine of your rims

Knowing what you use your car for and where you drive it, I probably wouldn't lower it...but if you do decide to, I wouldn't lower it very much

bigger rims cost a ton, do little or even hurt performance and make your ride worse...
But hey it's your money!
I just think towing a bike would work better with stock tires, but that's just me.

rims
Thanx For all the replies 
the tracks that i goto are really not to bad dirt wise most of it is just like driving on cement so i dont think rims will get scratched to much. Charlie Brown your car looks AMAZING haha although i think 20s would be a bit big i'd have to go for 18s haha anyone know tire sizes for low profiles i like the wide look and i have no idea what works and what dosn't haha and does anyone think it would look alright not lowered with 18's ? thanks everyone for all the input haha
