They weren't bad for stock... but yeah, it was too common for me and I wanted to fit 305's in the back.

<< Still rockin' the brembos! For stock wheels, I like them! I wish they had a bit more sidewall to them (especially in the rears), but they still look good. The only problem is that EVERYONE seems to have them!

I did find a great deal on a set of rims I liked, but then I messed up my knee, so I am going to have to put that on hold...

In person I rarely see Brembo equipped cars. That's weird you see them everywhere.

It was worse in California than here in Colorado, but I still see at least half of the 2010-2014 Mustangs running them. Now granted, I don't see a ton of Mustangs anymore (I swear, CO is sponsored by Dodge), but when I do, quite a few are still in the Brembos.

You guys wanna see wheel gap?

This was my last car when brand new.

The AWD models were granted a ride height 1" higher than the RWD models, and the skinny 18's on there didn't help:

And when I was done with it, sitting about 2" lower on coilovers and meaty 18" tires:

I'm certainly flattered to be included in the same crowd as many of my friends.
Your photo against the wind farm background is AMAZING though Patrick. Magazine worthy

Thanks Tony!
That car was awesome in the snow, especially when I put snow tires on it.

AWD, 4500+ lbs (with me in it), traction/stability control, and snow tires = a TANK in the winter, pretty much unstoppable.
I have videos of it going uphill in 6+ inches of snow, stopping and getting going again with no problems.

These pics show it in some of the deeper stuff she's tackled, and had no problems getting out:

Sorry for the Charger detour folks ...

Now back to your regular scheduled programming


My '13 is back on the 18" SVT rims as of earlier today.
The 19"/20" AMR package is off the car, as it's for sale and I'm trying to make sure I don't damage them in any way.

Thanks Darren. That was my absolute favorite shot of the day too. And such a random place, random meet up. Everything just lined up that day. What's your email? I'll send you the full res version.

Thanks buddy ... I've had them on the car for a while last year, and really liked them.
They're SVT (from the 2010 GT500 convertible) 18x9.5 rims with 285/40/18 front tires and 305/40/18 rear DR's ...

That's pretty awesome about the Charger. Looked really cool too. I have a soft spot for Mopar cars, if anyone couldn't tell. LOL

I think your Mustang looks killer like this. Good call on going back to this set up Gabe.

Thanks Tony ... I really like these wheels too, and somebody's on their way up now to buy the charcoal AMR's, so that's good
