The guy at the shop had a 2005 with 20s that was lowered 1" and it looked sweet. He said that he hasn't had any problems with it handling and driving it daily.

As I was leaving there was a Shelby Cobra pulling in that also looked like it had 20s.
yeah I was thinking you had a sn-95, but you will be fine with 20s on a 05+

Mine has 16s so that is strange. Maybe because mine is a convertible?

That makes sense since we were talking about 05+ cars.

i saw a mustang on 22"s today. i think it looked really badass. only reason i knew they were 22"s the guy had a sticker on the side that said 22's. that wasnt badass....
then i saw this green chevelle with some probably 24's and it looked freaking pimp. lately ive realized im liking pimp cars... like the 300c... hmm
