18's will fit fine depending on the tires. I'd go with chrome:

1. 18x9.5 Y2K's
2. 18x9 '03 Cobras
3. 18x9 Saleens
4. 18x9 '95 Cobra R's
5 18x9 & 18x10 Bullits

For tires I'd go 275x35x18 all around or 275 front and 295 rear with the 10" wide rear rim.

IMO i think 18's are a good size rim for stangs. i had 18 inch y2k's on my stang before and damn they looked good. but i sold them bc i converted to 5 lug and bought some powdercoated 17x9 black cobra r's and **** they look sick! and if you do get 18's drop the car some and it will look sick!

You can fit 18s on the SN-95 cars no problem - I have the optional 17's from Ford, and it depends on what you think looks good, but I like the 18 inch chrome Saleen wheels. You lose some in performance by getting big chrome wheels, but its really up to you if its worth it or not.
