You didn't knock me for having my 17" bullitt wheels and my vinyl stripes, right? What did you say? I think it was, "be original man don't hate on me or my boy because you can't come up with anything original". I think that was it. It's all good though, Bobby. No hard feelings.
And Mike... the area between the wheel and the fender needs to be less than the height of the sidewall of your low-profile tires. If not, it's gonna look off. Hopefully you'll be able to drop it enough. Good luck with that. It would just stink if your car turned out like this...

If you dont, cool, but darn, you dont have to dog anyone out for trying stuff their own way. I dont knock anyone for doing anything custom to their ride, so other people shouldn't either. Just respect the life style, and repect someone for doing their thing. That's my last 50 cents on this darn thread. Holler!!!!

i ordered my 22's a week ago and there going to be here this week sometime but i have been hearing alot of people on here talk about how ugly they think they are is this because of the fact that they cant afford 22's or do they not like them because there into performance and the bigger wheels hurt that or what im lost ,sorry if this sounds like a hate thread cause its not, its just that i have always liked the bigger wheel less tire look and after seeing the white GT with the red strips on 22's at sema last year thats the look i have been wanting to build in my new GT but i want silver with metalic white strips lowered one inch on 22's with a nice body kit
so anyway what are ya'lls honest opinions on running 22 inch wheels on the new stang

thats what people used to say about 18 inch wheels
times change, cars change, wheels change, the size of the fender openings change
come on people catch up , 17 inch wheels arent BIG anymore
oh well who cares i like them and so do all the people "I" know

darn... a couple months it could have been a full decade 'holy dead thread' bump
my 06 came with 17s, changed to 18s, hated the ride, changed back to 17's... with even taller rear rubber, thing rides nicer than ever, fills the wheel lip without lowering. Definitely feels softer handling-wise, but the back end breaks free more controllably - where the 18's would step out very very abruptly, the softer rears make throttle oversteer more progressive, I guess as they can roll under a bit unlike the 18s stiff sidewalls.
I cant imagine 22s... sure would handle like on rails, but would expect the ride and suspension shock/abuse wouldnt be for me... when I changed from 17s to 18s, my 60 foot times dropped 1-2 tenths(wider rubber) but lost 3/10 and 4 mph at the finish...
