I'm considering same wheels for my 2010 GT... It looks like the Nitrous Legend SS's come in 18" or 20". Worried about the ride quality with the low profile tires I'd need for 20's.
If you have these wheels, how does it ride, and what tires are you running?
Anyone know if you could fit taller tires, like 255/40ZR/20 in front, and 295/35ZR/20's in the back?

Only real concern are the 20" stocks and how much of a difference it will make weight wise and effect the car. If I just give up I will do deep dish 18's.

Just to confirm, the SS are the ones that are meant to clear the Brembos. The ARE NOT the wheels pictured above (with the full polished lip). The SS just has an inset metal ring. You have to be careful when ordering to make sure you get the right ones as there is a lot of confusion out there.
Anyway. here is a quick 'chop for you:
BTW, please drop the car before adding 20's -- it looks soooooo much better

Bought it this week! For some reason, I haven't found many of these wheels on the cars, so hope this helps.

I would recommend against it as the overall diameter would increase by 1 inch over the standard diameter of factory wheels/tires or aftermarket ones targeted to mustangs.
Granted, I had mind moderately lowered with Eibach Pro-Kit, I just got the Foose 20 inch Legend SS wheels and the recommended tires (255/35 and 295/30) come pretty close to top of fenders (half inch in front and little under a inch in the rear). If you are like many mustang owners and have the car lowered, can't see how these larger diameters would fit.

Like you said, its kinda rare to see these wheels, so could you post a couple more pics of your sexy black ride, showing off those sexy black wheels..
Im waiting for the snowy season to pass so i can pull the trigger on these wheels.

Few More Pics
Few things to keep in mind, these wheels, like many 20's, are pretty heavy, unsprung weight obviously effects your performance and gas mileage (for gas mileage at least, I guess if we were concerned about that, we'd all be driving a prius). Lastly, if you haven't done so, you may want to consider lowering it, as we all know our cars have the 4x4 look out of the factory, and if not lowered, 20's may draw more attention to the wheel gap (in my opinion).
Hope it gets warmer in your area soon and good luck, let me know if you need some more info on this set.

Those look awesome man. Very sharp!
How much did those run you if you don't mind me asking?
Do you happen to have the specs on those? Preferably the weight of each rim.

I had previously thought about getting these wheels for my 2006 since I'm tired of taking care of chrome _daily_. After seeing those pics, I am back to thinking about it again...dang, this site makes me spend so much money.
+1 to wheel specs, best place to order, and more pics if you have them.
