Right now I own an 05 Black GT mustang with some chrome 20" wheels, I dont like them at all and have been offered a straight swap for 18" staggered with nittos and I do like the potential trade,

BUT

DO 18" WHEELS LOOK TO SMALL ON THE 05 BODY STYLE?

I was hoping for 19"s

OK QUICK EDIT HERE ARE WHEELS I AM BETWEEN HELP ME PIC"

19" WHEELS STAGGERED

18's will look good depending on what the tire size and lowering is. ive seen lots of 05+ GT's with 18's.

I have 18"s check out my pics in the thread below this one, I think i'm still the last post. They fit and look great. I never liked getting non standard sizes like 19" because its hard to find fairly priced tires.

IMO they are to small. And my reasoning is, I like a low profile tire. You could put a low profile tire on 18's and it would look fine but then it won't meet factory height of 27.2. A 19 or 20 would allow you to run a low profile tire. If you want to get rid of your rims, you could try selling them on buying someone else's. s197 forums and mustangforums have a lot of rims fs

Yes, I shop on eBay, lol. Help me decide, I feel like spending some money, either way the wheels will be staggered fitment and I already checked they all are available for mustangs regardless if I posted correct links for bolt pattern and offsets.

I did just find the Laguna Boss wheels staggered for 436.00 for a set, kinda leaning that way




besides the Boss wheels, though what offset would I need. The Lorenzo's come in a variety, but mainly 32 or 40mm?
