Looks nice. Those tires look like they'd do well in pretty much any weather, too.

Nice choice in tires. I'm not big on the wheel design but I am a 5 spoke kinda guy so it fits. Lol, it doesn't matter how much you paid for those tires, I coulda got em cheaper
I cheat though, I go to church with the western division manager of kumho tires. Back when I had my 02 neon with my ADR 17s on it I got 205 40 ZR17s in the ecsta supra (712 series, now discontinued I think) for 216 bucks for all 4 brand new. My dad got 4 new 265 70R 16s for his 98 ram for the price of 260 bucks...sweet tires too. So yeah, for future reference I've got a bit of a discount lol

IMO too many people have 5 spoke rims. Yes, they look good, but in my mind they are just over played. But for a Mustang they should do well.

When I had my 95' Stang, I had the Konig Villans with Nitto 550's. They were a sweet setup especially with a 2" drop (Steeda Springs).
I like those rims, tire haven't heard much about, been out of the 1:1 cars for awhile....wife and kids will do that to some of us.When all else fails....10lb sledge hammer.

you can sell those american racing rims for a good amount of money if they are in good condition.

why do people say "rims"? the whole thing is called a wheel. this is a rim

dude wheel refers to rims that have the tires mounted on them. also it is common to say that the brake parts are part of the wheel.
