Thanks everyone!!!

Well since it rained today, I took the opportunity to give the car and the new wheels a quick coat of wax.

Patrick, thanks as always for coming through for me and once again, I'm glad that I took your advice in choosing the Steeda's over the AMR FR500 style wheels.. I will admit however that at first I was a bit skeptical that a 20x9.5 wheel with a 45mm offset would clear the upper strut mount stud along with the front sway bar end link, but thanks to all the feedback and support that both you and Gabe provided along with Rod from Steeda, the Spyders not only fit, but also provide plenty of clearance on both the outer and inner fender with no problem whatsoever..

At any rate, I should had known all along that Steeda would not design a product made exclusively for the Mustang that would not fit properly..

With that being said ! Yes, they do indeed fit just as you said they would from the very start and once again I thank you, as your feedback and support are always truly appreciated and valued

Gabe ! Thank you for providing pics of your buddy's Spyder's.. As once I saw how good they looked on his 13 GT, that pretty much sealed the deal in making my final decision to purchase them for my 06 and thanks to you, Patrick and everyone else for providing their feedback and support, I definitely made the right choice and couldn't be happier as a direct result

Thank you very much Tony, as it was definitely time for a wheel and tire upgrade.. Although I really like the styling of the Niche Milan's just as Gabe has on his 13 GT a bit more over the Steeda Spyders.. I was looking for something in a machined finish rather than an all black wheel and I definitely did not want to go with a chrome finish again, as chrome ends up getting all pitted and stone chipped thanks to the multiple road construction projects that take place here in western PA every friggin year lol.

So between the Spyders, AMR FR500 and Niche Milan's, I decided on the Steeda Spyders as my final choice.. In addition, I also couldn't pass up on the huge discount that Rod from Steeda provided for me off the retail price on both the wheel and tire package as well

Rocky, you're welcome buddy ... glad we could help with your decision-making ...
My last set of wheels lasted about 2900 miles on the car before I sold them, so you never know ... my Milans might be gone soon, or they might stay with me for quite a while.
Going to see a buddy tomorrow about maybe pulling the rear fenders a bit, so that I can fit the rear wheels/tires a bit better, without the taller rear springs that I have on the car now. That compromise has bugged me tremendously

Gabe, you most definitely helped with my decision making as did Patrick and of course the pics you provided of your buddy's 13 GT, also really helped seal the deal for me as well lol.

Anyhow I really hope you keep those Milan wheels, as I really like how great they look on your 13 GT.. As they would've been my first choice if they had been offered in a machined finish and also for the same price I got the Spyders from Steeda

Those look great.

Do you have any pics with them on from the front and back?

Thinking about getting new wheels and tires myself, and I have thought about the spiders before.

What I like most about the Spyders, is they're engineered and designed specifically just for the 05-16 Mustang by Steeda.. IIRC they also meet OEM quality standards which is also important to me as well..


In the meantime, I'll take some front and rear pics and post them for you as soon as possible..
