Ok here it is boys... Sorry for the delay. I just love these dang rims. They're even more beautiful in person... The concavity is just right. The finish is splendid. And those tires and tread designs are great. And so darn wiiiiiide . I needed the whole area in the basement to lay everything out... Haha. Kids are off limits in the basement tonight

That's a lot of rubber. Very nice. Now don't go to sleep until they're mounted on the car.

Thanks shiaz.

Thanks so much guys... I really wish it was warm out and no snow on the ground so I can mount these babies tonight. Sadly I have 3 months to WAIT to drive her . So I might put them on just for a photo op, then take it out again lol. You don't want them sitting for an extended period of time with a soft compound rating.

Another couple pics... I really have never been this up close to 305 wide tires. I had my son pose next to it and the dang tire is WIDER than he is lol.

2nd pic shows the "staggered" set up.

What sizes did you go with?

I'm running 255/35 and 295/30 and with I had run taller tires. I'm replacing a bent wheel next week in less than a year of them being on the car.

How'd you bend the rims? Sorry to hear that. Repairable tho right?

I went with 255 35 20s and 305 35 20s on 20x8.5 (32mm) and 20x10 (40mm). They sit perfect.

just potholes and me having tires that are on the low end of what's the range for acceptable tire heights for this gen Mustang. When I switch to the Milans next year, I'll get taller tires.

That is... if I don't buy a '15
