Well, a 16 inch rim will ride better than a 17 inch, the 17 will be rougher, the bigger size will make the speedo off alittle, but its just up to you, 17's are better in my opinion

Get rid of those pony's.....some nice 17s will make your car look a lot better.

You'll might feel a difference if you go 18s or higher....but with 17s...no problem.

I'd go with the 17's just because they would look better on a stang. I wouldnt go more than 18's, but that would be pushin it.
