Just kidding -- I actually have a lot of admiration for the current Ford Mustang -- in its design, engineering, and Ford's execution of the concept. That's really an example, in my opinion, of a car maker "getting it right".

I've given more than passing consideration to buying one. But as a lifelong Chevrolet guy, just can't bring myself to do it yet.

Your wheels and car look great.

Did you upsize your tires as well as the wheels...what size tires do you have on your wheels front and rear?

999.00 for the set is a great deal... I think they will look great with the wider rubber.. it will save us $$ by holding off the wide body bug fora while...
