What size rims would look better on a silver convertible mustang 2006 with a black top 20 or 18?

I cant decide which size I want chrome does anyone have any suggestions.

  1. 20s...maybe 22 if they fit
  2. The factory ones. There is a set of Cobra wheels on ebay now....or it was a couple of days ago. Factory is the best. I cringe when I see most aftermarket junk on a nice car.
  3. Anything bigger than 18'' takes away on the handling ability, 20's look good but why spend the extra money? so you can say you got dub's? who cares, plus before you buy them compare tire replacement costs from 18 to 20 big big price jump, all in all unless its a "Donk" or a Truck forget the twentys or bigger
  4. Get 20's, it will look better, 18"s are nice but 20's are better - the mustang will look good
  5. 20s definitely look better but at the cost of hp you will lose approximately 10-20 hp because of the rotational mass but in my opinion its worth it. throw a shot of nitrous on it and you'll never know the difference. raceline and billet specialities makes some really nice looking rims
  6. Be prepared to have your transmission rebuilt after you put them on. Turning the bigger wheel is like towing a heavy trailer . Especially on your first and second gears. And it will ruin the ride comfort of your suspension. Part of the suspension flex absorption comes from the tires (profile) mass it self. Those rims run a low profile tire , that flexes very little compared to stock tire sizes.Your car will be like riding on smooth rocks. You will also scrub the inner fender wells on bumps The steering handling characteristics will be greatly reduced also Things are not always what they appear to be............
  7. 20's will only look good...but theres 10 hp & transmission loss!!.. I had 17's on my silver 06 GT & put on 18's (Fan blades) & it looks good! ..check out this site for good looking rims: www.tirerack.com
  8. put 20's and forget what these guys are saying bout it messes up the ride of the car. it dont. i put 20's on my grand prix and everyone says it messes up the ride the car handels better rides better and everything. the tranny hasnt gone out or anything. as for price on tires i payed 548 for a set of nittos and i dont think thats to bad. your car will look great just dont get some rent-a-tire rims.
