Default Anyone with Mega Deep Dish wheels?

Wondering if anyone bought the Mega Deep Dish wheels yet. If so, what size wheels and what size tires. How do they look, fit, perform? Pictures would help. Thinking about it and have not lowered my Stang so I'm wondering if the staggered look would work with 20 back and 18 or 19 front. Any help? Thanks.

20s[:'(][:'(][:'(][:'(]

i think 19 in the back and 18 up front would look pretty cool...

20"s look like *** on our cars. It makes the car look like a toy.

Now the 05+ don't look too bad with them since the body is bigger.

Any idea what size tires would be right for the 19x10s?

I agree 20s are too big...I've never seen one staggered though. Thought that might ook pretty good. It's hard to imaging the different sizes. I've still got 17's.

315/25 would be 1/2" short. 335/25 would be close.

Or, just buy some rubber bands. You're looking at a 3.3" tall (83.8mm) sidewall. TireRack says 285/30.

Thanks. Just trying to think of ways to get around the 4x4 look with bigger rims and tires as opposed to dropping the car.

$150 for a set of springs or $2500 for a set of wheels/tires?

Easy choice, IMO. I'd like some better looking rims, but only for cosmetics. FYI, taller tires will get you into rub problems, and you'll need to recal your speedo. Acceleration will suck even more, unless you swap out to 4.30 or 4.56 gears.

Spend the $150 and get some FRPP springs. My 'B' springs ride like the stockers and don't look bad.
