Once again, you'll notice in the picture how ridiculous the wheels look. If you look at my sig, kugz sig, harrys sig, or ubers sig, you'll see a tastefully modded mustang with 17'' wheels.

I bet our cars ride/perform/handle 100x better than onesweet02s car with 20'' wheels. I'm just saying.

Nothing bigger than 18s on the 94-04, please.

There might be a sweet lokking 18 F and 19 R set up, but I strees the word might.

even though the new camaro and cars like the srt8charger/300c comes with 20s they kinda fit the body but it will be kinda out of place lookin on the new edge stang. 18s and below is where its at on these cars.

I'd like to see that setup, cuz judging from the cars I've seen lowered as much as he says his is, he's either got no sidewall on the tires or they're up in the fender.

Definately +1 on that. Those cars are ridiculously huge body wise and pretty much require such a big rim to look decent, but the 99-04s have a smaller sleeker design that is not only better weight wise, but also looks imo

OP, stick with 17s or 18s. my car has 17s on it. 20s are retarded.
I'm 100% sure that pic was not taken in the United States and did anyone else notice the bad publicity that car is giving Rockstar Games.

20's will fit fine on your car. I personally don't care for the look at all though. Aside from the look the added weight isn't too good either. What are you trying to accomplish by installing a 20" rim?

Dude dont let none of these negative comments or pictures discourage you. Everyone has their own taste. The pictures they are posting is rediculous because they are hideous style rims. The yellow mexican car should be at a circus with 20 clowns getting out of it. And the other red mustang has Luxury style Lexus 20's.. If you get the right rim it will look fine. I had 20's on both of my mustangs. Both cars were lowered and never had a problem rubbing. Here are two pics. One of each car with 20's. Black Cobra had 20 inch older saleen style rims, and the silver car has the 20 inch new style saleen rims. I personally dont have them on anymore. They make ur car feel sluggish out the gate. I went back to chrome factory size 17's.. But 20's look ok if u dont mind giving away some speed.

Ill admit that first picture isn't too bad, but the 2nd one is terrible. Plus it makes your brakes look tiny!
