well there has been numorous threads about this and no one seems to know the answer. one question I have is why? 15x6s up front kill the look of "big meats n skinnies" and skinnies dont handle that bad i have daily drove on them for 3 years.

Because 15x6 tires are easy to find and have a bigger foot print resulting in better handeling and braking. My mustang is my daily driver and I like to driver her hard. Skinnies look great but they are not someting I would trust to stop my car in high speeds. But that is just me.

Well the 15x10s with P295/50/r15s fit PERFECT! After you took out the quad shocks and Beat the $H*! out of the fender wells. It was not easy getting them in but was well worth it in the end.

Looks good. Would look better with some 15 x 3.5 skinnies in the front though. I have 15 x 3.5 in the front with 165 x 80 x 15 tires and it looks amazing. Handling is that not bad at all with them and you just have to be a little more cautious about following people too close is all.
