Default newb, need new wheels

Hi, I'm new on here. I have a 99 V6 convertible, crystal white w/ black top, and i really want some new rims. I really like 18's and was wondering how ya'll thought the Chrome S Styles would look. MustangTuning.com has them. Do yall think they would look good? and also would 9's up front and 10's out back look better than 9's all around? any feedback is appreciated.

They would look damn good and yes 18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the rear look's better.

Thanks, what should the tire size be front and rear? also what do you think about spliting the exhuast at the end of the y pipe and dualing it with flows? delta 50 or the 40 series?

i am guessing you mean the chrome saleen wheels...like i have

They are some badass wheels...

and its just a V6 (dont be offended...i drive one too) there really is no need to get a bigger wheel/tire in the back

I have 18x9's all the way around with 275/35/18 tires and they look amazing

unless u really want the muscle car look fat tires in back and skinnier ones up front

and the tire sizes for the 18x10's would be from 285-315

as for the exhaust...flows are nice but tend to get raspy without some more exhaust work...and i have magnapacks which dont get raspy but still loud and full through most of the rpms...idle is too quit though...but then again it a V6

tclark- did you just dual the magnapacks from the "y" or what? thats what i was thinking about doing. but at the same time im thinking about just going duals from the cats back (can i do that or do i need an x or h pipe?)

I'm thinking that the rims are the saleen style, thats probablly what the "s-style" is....here's what im talking about.... http://www.mustangtuning.com/chromesaleen.html
