RE: RECOMMENDED WHEEL SIZE FOR '05 PONY

I got me a set of progress lowering springs and it lower the car 1.5"F and 2.25"R. It looks good and it runs good. I was going to get eibach, but found this one for less.

RE: RECOMMENDED WHEEL SIZE FOR '05 PONY

I have the eibach pro kit, but plan to swap out the rears with the sportline to give it a more level look.
getting back to the thread now, I used this to figure out what the best tire size would work and be close in diameter front and rear.

05GTStang....I just saw your pics and all I can say is WOW.....

I just ordered 20" Foose Nitrous earlier this week with 255/35 and 285/30 BFG KDW2 and I can't wait to get them in.....I was going to order 18s, but I would have had to wait 4-5 weeks as they were not in stock....I was a little apprehensive about the 20s, but after seeing your pics I feel better.....BTW these will be installed on an 06 Black GT Conv...

Thanks for the praise. Greatly appreciated!! I am sure that you are going to love the look and feel of those Nitrous' and be ready to see all the heads that are going to turn and watch you drive by once you install these on your vehicle. Be sure to post pics once you get them on so all can see!!

No doubt thoose wheels looks good. Like I said I am thinking about buying them too. Can you tell me where did you bought them from? I live in Hawaii and I have to order everything online. They don't have that many wheel shop here and if they do the wheels are really expensive.

You can contact the guy that I bought mine from and I am sure that he will do the best he can to get them to you. Tell him that "Ron" referred you. His email address is RFDOCTOR@TAMPABAY.RR.COM and his name is Jim Bateman.

Thank you Bro! I already e-mail the guy. If you don't mind telling me, can you tell me how much did you pay for the wheels and tires?

RE: RECOMMENDED WHEEL SIZE FOR '05 PONY

The total I paid with mounting, Road Force Balancing and put on the car, since we are basically local to each other, was $2650. This included the lugs and wheel locks.
