Default 10 inch or 12 inch racing stripes?

2010 Kona Blue V6 Mustang. I'm going for the beefy, muscly, mean look. Suggestions?

I have the 12 inch stripes with 3/8 pin stripe. It's a crappy photo from my phone, but I hope this helps your thought process.

I read last night it was 10 3/4 inches. It came from a Mustang magazine, so who knows without actually measuring yourself.

(Keep a tape in your car and when you see a Shelby, go over and measure them to be sure) lol.

10" FTW. You don't know how high and low I've been looking for this pic. My 06 was Tungsten with silver 10" and I loved the look, but wasnt sure how it'd fit on my 10. Now that I've seen yours, I'm convinced. Silver stripes are definitely going on mine now.

I looked into both on our 06 when we got it. Saw both on cars and thought the 8 was too skinny by far, the 12 looked too wide almost like they took up too much from the hood, but the 10 looked ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!
