I changed from the "bright" aluminum wheels to the 18" Fanblades.

No problems whatsoever. Of course, make sure that you get your TPMS reassigned to your car if you have a 2007+ Pony.

For those of you that don't use jack stands you might want to reconsider. Sure, you are not going under the car and think you will be fine but that isn't alwasy the case. When I was in school, a guy in one of my classes had jacked up one side of his car to work on the brakes. He was only using a floor jack. While working on the car someone came around the corner of the car and hit the bar that you use to raise/lower the jack. Since it wasn't in the right place the car slipped off the jack. The car fell and hit the ground. So no big deal, a little damage to the car right. Well that would have been the case if the guy working on the car hadn't put his leg under the car to be in a more "comfortable" position while working on the brakes. His leg was broken in a couple of places, but it could have been a lot worse. There is a reason they tell you in the owners manual to always use jack stands.
