Tired of 19's

[hogwild]

Those of you that have the 19" Premium wheels and tires and wish to change wheels, have you discovered our choices are #@%$%%! I need help. Go down to 18's and then lower the car or step up to 20's??? What are you guys doing? Going up or going down(no pun intended)

my 19's got about 800 miles then put away.

I went with 18" wheels, lots of tire choices, 255 front 285 rear

same problem here. LOVED the car. HATED the rims. dealer gave me 1k credit to a local wheel shop. after a lot of debate, i will be ordering 20s. don't get the 18's man. Take a look at this video. it give you a good idea of what they would look like.

20" wheels will be heavy and use a lot of HP to accelerate them. I'm willing to bet the wheels are 40 pounds.
My 10 x 18 wheel weighed 24.5 pounds. I am fitting over brembos with a 14 " rotors. I like the way they look. I like a little track time so performance is important. If you just look at you stang than I guess 20's are oK.

I found a buyer for my CS 19" rims BEFORE i even purchased the car. The day after I got the car, I drove to Steeda and their 20" Spyders put on.. 275s in the front..295s in the back..rims are 9/11" wide. I didnt go with 315s out back only because they were on back order at the time. Ill find some pics.
