Looks great. I'm glad you got the big brake kit because my biggest pet peeve with 20's on the stang is that they make stock rotors look they belong on a honda.

Looks great! Hows ride quality versus stock. I have my d-specs on order with ultra lite springs already installed. And what tire size are you running? They look bigger then the normal 35 series rubber.

the ride quality is great with the 20s and the suspension. handles and hugs the road nicely. i haven't been able to play with the shock settings yet, but eager to play around and see how it feels. mine are set at 2 from firm, and it feels awesome! some people have said 20s ride harsh, I have no clue what they were thinking, I think the 20s out perform 17s or 18s that come on the stangs.

Im running Nitto 555 265/35/20s

Sweet Razors! I'm looking at getting 20-inch Razors in Gunmetal for my Candy Apple Red '08. But, I'm concerned that every little rock and crack in the road is gonna come through the steering wheel and make my hands go numb!

OK, maybe it won't be that bad!

Maverick, how does the road feel in the steering with the 20's and D-specs?

the road feels great and the steering is great, although i did have to get an alignment. the suspension is not bouncy like stock when you hit bumps in the road, sometimes you can barely feel the smallest of bumps with the tokico's.

Looks great!
I hope to be heading down the 20" path sometime in the near future.

I'll have to get big brakes too or else Leo will make fun of me.
