Not only does it look good, but it is the best looking 05 Mustang I've seen yet.

Really does look great and not just because I also have a torch red one (ha)....Wheels do look nice and the size doesn't appear to be overwhelming. The other options for lowering may have included aftermarket camber plates (which was recommended by my local ford dealer's service manager.) along with the alignment. It would be interesting to hear from others on this subject of springs and what else may be necessary (that the spring manufacturers fail to tell people).

SWEET! Man, you've got the best-looking '05 Mustang, IMO. Those pics prove to me that the new 'Stang needs little other than a lowered suspension and big rims with fat meats to make it look absolutely MEAN.

Man, I gotta say, that is one of the sweetest looking 05's I have yet to see. I've been looking at 19" rims all day today and I've never realized how good silver Drift R's look on the 05. Thanks to you, I now will consider those wheels as one of my choices when I get my car. Very tastefully done. Kudos to You!

BTW...by how much did you lower your GT? Also, do you know if ROH makes them in chrome and the cost?

Best looking aftermarket wheels I've seen as well. Perfect stance too. Congrats!

Looks great. Good choice on the rubber. Wish my rims were as cheap as yours.

Edit: Didn't mean to make it sound like your rims look cheap. I was referring to the price.

absolutely perfect......................19 inch rim with 3 inch lip............PERFECT, 19x9 up front and 19x10 in back.................PERFECT, Eibach prokit drop.......................PERFECT, 275/35 and 295/35 .....................PERFECT.

Best wheel/tire/drop combo on a stock 05 so far IMO. I found all my neccessary specs (need to wait for this summer to get the convertible first tho :angry: ). Nice job. So, just to make sure............no rubbing in the front or in the back...... right? Did you get the tires from JD also? Thanks.
