Well I would, but my car is almost exactly the same and would look just as bad. In the most loving way possible.

Here's a couple pics of my 88 GT with the Billet Specialties Street Lites - 15x3.5 and 15x8 with a Nitto 275/50-15 DR

Here's how I drive it daily - with a set of Bullitts. I'm getting ready to order the 17x9 wheels for the rear shortly...

Yeah but your 2-tone Mustang is BAD-A! You can show as many pics of it as you want. I am also going to be ditching the 17" bullitts in the future and going with some sort of 18" wheel and a staggered width. Probably when I get something else to drive everyday.

ARE 16x8, 245/50 front, 265/60 DR's out back.

Here's the only side shot i have, before the drag radials went on so this is 245/50s all around. They needed more beef in the back.

Yeah that was my GT. I wrote and photographed the article. I started with this almost 100% bone stock GT with low mileage so I've been workin' on some good solid fox body articles with Evan Smith and MM&FF magazine. This is my second article. About 3 years ago i had done an AOD to T5 swap article with my 1992 5.0 Notch I used to have. I'm working on another article here pretty quickly, just waiting for the parts to show up. More to come later.

John
