Ok, lets sum this up. I personally think 20's look good on the new stang, especially with the wheel gap gone. However, how much performance/braking are you trading by going with such a large wheel?

On a side note, what is the widest tire you can get on a 20x 10 rim?

IMO 20's and up are too big. 19s arent bad but I am going to go with 18x9 in the front and 18x10 out back in deep dish bullits. I think anything bigger than 18 is a waste and too much unsprung weight.
 
i wish i would have had 20's this past weekend at pocono instead of the stock 17's

do you think saleen would have really put 20's on the car if it had a big impact on performance??? i doubt it.

my vote is for 20's, although i was with another 05 this weekend with staggered 19's and it looked bad ass

you need at least 19's no smaller, i am going for 20's probably.
