gracias, thanks for clearing that up. so i could probably get away with a bit more sidewall on the 45mm offsets on a 255. Love the looks of 20's, just hate the rough ride.

OK, well I have mine installed and noticed a pretty big error however I think it may be to late to do anything about it since I have the wheels on the car already. All four boxes say +24mm on them however 2 of them are the +40mm version. To make matter worse, The driver side has the 40mm up front and the 24mm out back which goves it a staggered look ontop of the already staggered tire sizes I did however the passenger side is backwards. The 40mm is on the back and the 24mm up front. I am having the tire shop swap the passengers tommorrow to match the drivers side. It doesn't look back, just looks staggered. Strange, I didn't ask for this setup but it doesn't look half bad.

I am going to get some today Deric. I got a couple last night before if poured on us but I am heading down to the tire shop to get the passenger side squared away with the offsets to at least get it to match the drivers side, then going to shoot some pics.

GUN Metal

Silver
Looking your votes.
Seabiscuit,
I vote for silver wheels to really offset the silver stripe. Caveat: I own a Satin Silver Mustang, so I am partial to that color!

If it's not too much trouble could you "photochop" a similar set of pictures on a Satin Silver Mustang with Ford Blue racing stripes?

I think the 40 offset in front and the 24 offset in the rear might be a pretty good look

Well Glenn, I have to admit, I was not a happy camper when I figured out that two of them where 40mm and one was on the back but now that the tire shop switched them and both sides match, I am sarting to like it. I took over 200 pictures today and going through them now. I'll make a new thread later and post them up.

Thanks, Seabiscuit. You seem to be a victim of your own charitable success!

I really like the look of that faded side stripe as well. I think I'll go with the blue stripes, a SS ducktail, blue badges, and blue SSBC brakes.

Here are your Chrome Razors. Your picture is law resolution so it was difficult to mach them and make some surface correction.

Hey Seabiscuit!!
Awesome job on all the simulations, they look great!! I have been trying to find a picture of a Vista Blue Stang with the black razors on it. I am trying to decide if I want black or one of the other finishes on my car. My car is Vista Blue with White Stripes. Was wondering if you could hook up a simulation image for me to check out!!! You would be helping me soooo much. this is the best Razor thread on any forum I have found so far!! Thanks A Lot!!!
