Default need help picking out wheels

hey guys im new to this forum. I need some help looking for a set of rims for my girlfriends V6 red 05 mustang. we both love the stock ones that came on the car but wish their was the same style only larger 17" possibly 18". This is the rim type http://www.v6john.com/Main/Stock.jpg also i have added the pony emblems to her fenders. Are their any small not too expensive touches you guys would recommend to add to her car. most of the picture on here are of gt's. any help would be appreciated but i really need to find out about the wheels. thanks again Nick

Hit up American Muscle (site sponsor) and see what you like. You will have MANY, MANY choices as to wheels.

I think 18"s are the way to go on Stangs, but your car, so you get to choose

If you are looking to replace tires as well, come back with thoughts on type of driving will be done on them. DD? high mileage? Mileage-smileage...... we want to tip-toe-through-the-twisties

Jazzer The Cat welcomes you both

thanks jazzer. thats a great site got plenty of good stuff for me to look through. the car is a DD she does mostly highway driving (goes to school in Newark Delaware, home town is Massapequa Long island. she does the drive back and forth about 10 times a year) so its going to be a lot of highway but i don't want to loose traction quality and ride quality as far as tires go but don't want to break the bank. i have nittos on my car and love them(02 SS) also her stockers will be put on for the winter.
