Default i need yals opinion on what i should go with

I have a 2005 mustang v6 and i was thinking about putting 18" black bullitt wheels on it. well i was thinking about going with 18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the back.. i was wondering weather this would look to wide for the car or just make it look wierd? and i have one more question do the 18s look to small or would they give the car a nice aggressive look to it? if yal have any pictures post them please...thanks

I think that the staggered look looks great! I recently put 17x8's on the front and 17x10.5's in the back. I steered away from the 18's on mine because I'm not planning on putting on bigger brakes for a while and I didn't want to get the massive wheels but tiny brakes look going on. However, you have a different year than I do, so either way you go, 18's or 20's, would probably look good.

It'll look fine. Many of us have that setup.

welcome to the forums. you`ll get better responses and its better for the readers if you properly title your post to something like" 2005 Mustang V6 Wheel size opinions please".....now back to topic. i like the staggered look. 18" is very popular and wide looks real good i think. i`m still riding on the stock 16`s and ive decided on 17x8 and 17x9 chrome bullits but ive been held up on tire sizes. i want wide but taller sidewalls vs. the low profile look.( i`m old school and old) tire size/brand options are kinda limited. i`m thinking stock height on the frt and a 1" taller tire in the rear to fill the wheel well without lowering the car. lowering the car and low profile tires seems to be the popular choice nowadays with most people. ive found the wheel/tire options to be a very tough choice.good luck with your decision
