how about upgrading to some nice looking 18s and getting some deep dish bullitts! I think deep dish bullitts look great on all mustangs! there's a wide variety of colors and finish's you can get.

i would look for wheels that are 10 or 10.5 inches wide for the back. i wish mine would've come that wide, but they only went to 9.5 inches wide. some nice fat 315's would look great on back.

Ebay has great deals on wheels and tires...


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-9-...95300750QQrdZ1

This place had different finishes, and can do a wheel and tire package for under 1500 i do believe.
Hope that helps

Yeah, American Muscle has several different sizes and colors for the deep dish Bullitts, and excellent customer service. I got the 18x9's in the front, and 18x10's in the rear in anthracite...






What color is your car?

Thank you very much oldernewbie. I love it! 2 weekends ago I had 1 guy pull up beside me and tell me it was the "hottest damn Mustang" he's ever seen. And the next night I had someone at a gas station tell me it was "incredible". I know it's not the most decked-out 'Stang, but I love it.

I have deep dish 10.5 on rear, covered by Nitto DRs 315/35/17. I used them for the track only a couple of times. They see street duty only now.

can you fit a 15" wheel on the back or is the 16" the smallest to fit around the stock brakes?

16 is the smallest, already tried that... would have had some ProStars if it would have worked!
