18/20 staggered would look better on an S-197 mustang, for the SN95s 17/18 stagger looks more fitting to the vehicle.

stick with 18s. 20s make your handling crappy and don't fit the look of the car as naturally as aftermarket rims should.

20's rlly dont look too bad, but they honestly do slow you down alot and they really mess up the handling, but hey where i live i need the lift they give me expecially if im to put a body kit on my car. but its anyones opinion, my mustang is a v6, therefore not to be fast just the look of a mustang is all i paid for. but im buying a wrecked v6 and gonna start a project engine with stroking and camming etc and drop it in later on.

Compared to 17s 18s??? It doesn't handle any worse than any other mustang.... with the 18s in front it doesn't slow it down any more than 18s all around in fact I have more traction than when I had 18's all around because the 20s in the rear are wider... I'm speaking from my experience not an assumption...

My Mustang doesn't look like the mass majority because I have 18s in the front and 20's in the rear.... Shame on me... I guess I don't conform to the standards of the majority of the Mustang owners of America... Well
good That is my point ... I want to personalise my Stang so it doesn't look like the next guys...

What do the majority of Non Mustang owners who don't know squat think when they glance at a Mustang? Well some think of the average 6 cylinder model ( No offense to those who own 6 bangers) Then they hear the roar of that v8 and they say " thats no average Mustang" I have seen a lot of Camero and Firebird owners who don't know squat and think they have the shit and probally never raced a Mustang and they under rate our ponies because they have this picture of the average 6 banger with 15 inch rims that hasn't been washed in a month..

Guess I'm guilty of being an individual and being different.... shouldn't be that way??? If we all try to make our mustangs comform a certain way well isn't that boring? Is to me...

You sound like a typical 16 year old emo kid whining about conformity.

Sure you dont have to do what everyone else does, yer welcome to make your mustang look as retarded as you possibly can. but when 9/10 people say something looks like shit, that is because 9/10 people agree it looks like shit, and chances are 9/10 drivers are gonna think yer a retard, and chances are everyone one else with a mustang is gonna think yer a ricer or poser for taking such a rediculous wheel arrangement.

you can like it all you want, and talk about what a raging awesome individual you are, but nobody else has to like it and nobody else will, so yes, you will be "THAT GUY" that people laugh at.

Have fun!

but if that is what yer into, go for it.

I may get kicked of this site for this post oh well I've got better things to do.... And these Mustang boards are a dime a dozen... And this one aparenently has no comaradre what so ever... In the real worls NOT the interenet world I have not had a negative comment one about my car.... But your problem yes I'm talking to you "JACK "ASS... You have a narrow mind and think YOUR the shit... Well by the way you post you sound like a whimp and a moron hiding behind a computer so you can feel tuff...

Well then why are you dickhead about it? You appear to be a leader on this board then whats with the sarcasm with someone who has a different idea or thought than the mass majority???

I'm bashing everyone on this site???? I haven't bashed anyone except YOU..... Why??? because your bashing me because I have a different idea than you and you don't like it... Thin skin.... Not likely just standing up for what I like.... Just trying to help you out by suggesting you might open your mind a little....

Hey I am loyal to all Mustang owners and don't want to bash any of them..

Well then prove me wrong and put up a pic, lets take a look at this. Honestly i dont for a second think it will look good, 20's are just way too big for sn95 mustangs.

serisouly dude, you need to take a chill and stop taking the internet so seriously. Yer gonna get real honest opinions on here, take em or leave em, look at GottiDC for example, go check out the threads he started, he was flamed 6 ways form sunday but still diddnt cry about it.

My opinion is that 20's look retarded on sn95 mustangs. period. i have NEVER seen 20's on a sn95 that looked even halfway decent. Am i supposed to lie to you and tell you i think it looks fine and dandy?


Now that i have a moment, im going to address some of the finer points of your post.

yeah but actually probably not, seriously, are you already starting out with th E-thuggery?

i gave you a little ribbing because you are bragging about how cool you are for non conforming and pretty much saying everyone else is a clone cause only you have origionality. Once again, relax, it is only the internet. No reason to respond with such a stupid post as you did.

Quote:

More E-thug-titude. ive been posting on here for about 4 years now, my job has the same workload as a maytag repairman so i spend a lot of time with nothing to do but surf the internet. This is one of the probable 2-3 dozen posts i have ever actually posted up here at home.

Yet again, more E-Thuggery.. i mean seriously?.... isnt that a bit childish?

i certainly have no plans to kick anyone off.

Yeah, after a few weeks and a hundred posts on your part, yer gonna realize why this is the single best mustang forum online.

Quote:

That is because in the real world people are less concerned about hurting peoples feelings and more likely to be honest.

But your problem yes I'm talking to you "JACK "ASS... You have a narrow mind and think YOUR the shit...
I am the shit, but just cause i dont like 20 inch rims i have a narrow mind?

Quote:

Oh please, give me a break, in real life OR the internet i could honestly give 2 shits about some dude who wants to come on here acting like he is some billybadass. I think im gonna have to submit you for E-thug of the year award!

Quote:
9/10 of the people on this site don't mean shit.... 9/10 in the real world does.....
Then why the hell are you on here? why dont you go pester some of the real people who will be polite and tell you yer wheel arrangement is so damn cool..
Those people are probably just being polite, thats all, but i dont think there are many mustang enthusiests who will like that wheel combination. Once again, if you wanna show everyone how freaking super awesome cool it is go put in a thread on the "introduce yourself" section introduce yourself and put up a pic of yer stang. But before you do it please be fully aware that you will get real honest opinions, not the polite "sure sure it looks great" you are used to.

Quote:
You should try to unite Mustang owners JACK not try to run them off.....
I dont HAVE to like your mustang, and you done HAVE to like my opinion.

Im not running anyone off. Quit being an E-thug, stop taking the internet so seriously, then go post a super cool pic of yer wicked wheel arrangement with the 20dub yo in the rear and show me how super awesome it really is.

If i like it, ill be honest about it.

now go.

get

post it up.

picsorban!

but i dont get mad. cause i like it anyway.
