Nice! So much one can to do to the car, not enough money. I love it! You gotta love a car that you can mod so much in just about any style or performance direction you want to go.

Daaamn, looks sweet, i'm thinking of ordering that same setup but with 295/40/18's in the back. Any problems with the big ol 295's on the back? Are you gonna lower your car now?

Thanks, I was looking for 295/40s but couldn't find that size. So i went with these and they fit perfect. The tire fills in the wheel well just right so i probably won't lower it. There is alot less fender gap now.

Looks fantastic!

I didn't know Toyo made a 295/45/18 - I thought only Nitto and Goodyear made that size. And I agree, had a company made a 295/40/18, I'd have went with that size too but ended up going with the 295/45 for the rear. Mustangshadow needs to see these pics!

OOOOOOHH me likey
this is what I needed to see. Thanks for the pics. I talked to a guy yesterday about Toyo tires. The only thing is that it was either 295/45/18 in the rear or 285/40/18....but I really like the look of them specially on the black bullitts which is exactly what I was thinking of ordering as well.
Tony how long did it take to get your rims in from mustang tuning?

Hey mustangshadow, When i ordered them back in late november i think it took a week to get them. I recently checked the site the other day and it said out of stock on the same ones. So you might want to call and find out.

Looks fantastic! That's the look I want to go with, nice fat meats to fill in the gap, and I love how they come out to the edge of the fenders.

I like your Tire choice too. I have the TOYO Proxies ST 255/45/18 all the way around. This way I can rotate the tires for a bit more tread life. Mine are mounted on Boss 304 Rims 18X8 with a +40 offset. Looks great on the car!
