Should i bump up to 20's
I'm kind of torn on this. I currently have the 18x9/10 anthracite bullitt wheels. Sometimes I think they look just a little too small. Sometimes when I see a mustang with 20's I think it looks great and other times just a little too big. What do you all think? Should I keep what I got or bump up a bit. May be a while before I would do it. Just curious for a few opinions. Here is the car with the 18's

Ok gents, thanks for the feedback. I agree that the 19 is a nice choice. The problem I run into is I can't find any anthracite bullitt wheels in a 19. So you would suggest leaving the wheels the same but upping the rear sidewall?

The reason you see some 20" wheels that you don't like is all about the tire. A lot of people who run 20s run a rubber band for a tire.
Look at the 05-09 Saleens, a 20" wheel with some good meat look awesome to me! I'll run 20s one day... As the wheel wells on cars get bigger, so do the wheels. I say go for 20s!

That's a real good point that I didn't really think about. Actually yeah I just looked at some saleens based on your advice and with some meat on the rim they do look fine

I have 275x30 on 10 1/2" rim and 235x35 on 9" up front. Stock ride higth. I would like to level it come doun some in the back. It is a daley driver so I don't wan't to lower it much. Speed bumps and such. Got a deal on the rims and tires I couldn't pass up.

I dislike the rubber band look, but these are 20" CS40s with some serious meat wrapped around them. This '14 GT500 belongs to 1 Alibi 2.
He told me the tire size, however I forgot. But when it comes time to replace tires on mine, I'm strongly considering 20" rolling stock....particularly those wheels.

Thanks gents, love the bourbon avatar by the way. I have pretty firmly decided to stick with the 18's for now. I may still go just a hair bigger on the rear tire size, but the amount of tire choices for 18's is another reason I have decided to stick with what I got
