Thumbs up

has anyone installed 18 deep dish bullitts and then wished they had gone up to 20's? I am about to order as soon as I am done with my BMR Springs and wanted to get some opinions ...One adavantage doing 18's is I can use my current tires till they wear out.

If you are planning on upgrading your brakes you might want to check on the sizes again. Brad was planning on putting DD Bullits on the Project Source Horse but found out that with the Baer brakes the DD would not work.

If you are not upgrading your brakes I would go with 18's and some slight lowering items.

I currently have the same dilemma. I love how the 20's fill out the car better (imo). But I havent seen any 20x10. With the 18's I could get fatter rubber (a plus) and from what I have heard would be a better ride also. But I wont be making my decision until late March early April. Let me know what you chose and be sure to post pics. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]

Replica makes 20x10 rims. Check out replicawheels.com, click on "Ford Car Replica Wheels" on the left, click "Mustang" and then scroll down. My 20x10 GT-R rims are made by them and are great quality. I ordered them through discounttiredirect.com.
