The ones in the first pic look awesome, but the rims on that last 4dr GTP look pretty darn good, too.

*sigh* I'm pretty much stuck with stock rims unless I win the lottery.........

i dont think those would look 2bad ?? what are some other rim styles that people like??
20's are too big. they look ridiculous [/b]
The cost of tires goes up tremendously after 17s. You are also very hard pressed to find quality all season tires for those of you like me who can not afford two sets of wheels for summer\winter.

The 20" chrome wheels will also add 40 pounds of total unsprung weight, which you do not want. The lighter the wheel and tire the better.

yes i know 20's ad weight but i am starting to get out of my drag racing thing ... i still love my custom cars and now i am getting more and more ability to do custom work i know the price of tires goes up but my friend got 22's for his truck and he said just make shure you dont get odd size rims and i would still keep my stock wheels and tires for winter tires. i think i am going to go more with style and not speed yes i love to go fast but i wanna look good

Look for some 2005+ Mustang bullet take offs. There are always some on ebay. Get them powercoated an off color to be unique. They come in 17s and 18s

I was gonna say, ya missing something there lol.

I dunno.

They look like a good price. And light too.

I dunno. I've never really been a fan of aftermarket rims.

Really, I like bullits and BBS-style rims.
