^ Those wheels are sweet.

They are a great retro option and definitely not something you see on everyone elses car.

I was very fortunate to win a set of 2011 GT500 SVT wheels and tires at a raffle held on Mustang Alley at the Woodward Dream Cruise. I love the wheels everything seems better, handling, steering, turn in, even the ride. Now planning on Brembo's.

Thanks Guys, I appreciate it. I know the car would look better lowered. But I have tried that several times, Eibach Pro's, Steeda Ultralights, H&R Sports and my old body just can't deal with the ride issues of a lowered car in Metro Detroit.

Currently have 08 Bullitt springs, Koni Sports, FRPP swaybars and I am happy and even more important the wife is happy !!!

Car actually rides better with these wheels and tires, I was surprised.

Fairly common for Mustangs, but I'll post some photos of my new AR Shelby Edition Torq Thrust M 18 x 9 all around...just got them a few weeks ago (still factory ride height though). Hopefully the pics get attached to this post:
