That's fine dude, you're right to each his own. I just don't think they fit on a stang. Your car is sweet, but it is overwhelmed by those huge chrome wheels, which takes away from the true beauty of a stang. Here is a similiar shot of my ride, see how the wheels don't dominate and steal your eye from the actual car, they only compliment the look of the car. It also allows you to have a bigger sidewall that fits the stangs better than a low profile look.

freezy to help answer your question. i think ford racing makes a set of lowering springs. i could be wrong but i think they lower the car no more than about an inch. that may help your stance without having rub.

sorry dude. i tried to keep an open mind about the 20s until i saw the pics. i thought you'd gone with the cobra replica 20s. for one thing, lexanis don't match on a stang. the biggest i would've gone would be some 19 in. racinghart c2s. some people may argue that it looks ricey, but i've seen stangs with the c2s and they look sweet.

hey roush. nice stang but why no roush rims?

The 360R comes w/ the Bullitts, because the theme of the car as you can see, is all nostalgic. I have seen 360R's w/ other rims and it takes away from that nostalgic look.

No need for an apology, I guess I came across angry w/ my reply, but I totally wasn't.

evideny people like mdvaldosta don't realize 20s are what you like. first straighten out the front wheels and measure from the lip of the fender to the top of the wheel and that should determine how much clearance you have. then pick the closest quality springs to that number and it should look better

that means that people have a closed mind about other peoples cars. efeezy doesn't give a **** what you say he likes his wheels. all he did was ask for help and the same people who are bashin' everyone are bashin' him. instead of saying you don't like the rims, help the guy with his problem.

OK, here's the problem solver. Sell those horrible rims get a set of 18" or 17" that complements the Mustang and all your problems will be over!
