Looks great! I really like the look of the wheels when they stick out to the edge of the fenders. It'll definitely be a lot harder to spin those back wheels now.

 

Definitely love the whees - nice choice! Too bad their not offered in a 18".....I'd be all over them then.

 

I tried it and I can still roast the tires as long as I want if I chose to throw $$$ right out the window!! I don't want to, so no dumping the clutch above 3500RPM.

 

I've never seen these rims. Have fun with your new shoes. Thanks for posting!

 

Nice tire/wheel combo!

 

Well, you also have to figure that the Shelby comes with 19's, not 18's which is the only size your can get for aftermarket unfortunately. Great choice man, I got some of the same coming next week, in Chrome 18x9.5 with Nitto 555's.

 

Thanks for the compliments! I will say, my fuel milage has gone down since installing these tires. One would expect that with that much rolling friction. But of course what is there about Mustangs that are effecient? I know I didn't care too much about efficiency when I bought the car, and the coolness of the new wheels / tires far outweighs the extra spent on fuel.

Having big fat tires on the rear is only really good for looks. They do hook up a bit better though. I have my first autocross this weekend so I will see if they really perform well or not.

 

Although I'm running 18x10's the tire size is 295/45/18 and my fuel milage took a serious dump from 28 to 24.5.I was running 255/45/18's prior to my wheel/tire change.I almost bought a set of Boss wheels but the weight was around 41 lbs.each.Reciprocating mass may be the cause of your fuel loss.Still,your wheels look great!

 

28? heh I'm lucky if I get 19, and thats when I feel like I'm being ultra conservative

 

I remember my 67 HEMI Charger getting a best of 8MPG on the hiway.I wasn't counting gallons or mileage back then.The big speedo gauge went one way,the small fuel guage went the other...just as fast.
