hahah im the same way whenever there is something new to my car i want to sleepp next to it. like when i got exhaust i wanted to drive everywhere. then when i got the grille delete, the mach 1 lip and the blackout honeycomb on the back of my stang i would park far away so i when i came out of a store i could just smile and stare
oh man. you got it bad!
I think this same thing drives my wife crazy. It's an illness. thankfully, there is no cure.

How do they fit, thats the real question. Did you need to use spacers or are they all set? Did you also get the 9" front wheels too or are they factory? I'm going to buy the deep dish rear wheels and front ones becuase I'm going with black spokes to go with my black car. So if you got the 9" front wheels, what size tire did you put on there? But I really just want to know how the rear ones fit. Oh by the way, they are absalutely gorgeous!!!!

no rear spacer needed, at least me, i believe you need them on the cars equipped with IRS i.e. cobra.
They fit just right. look very good and fill in right at the edge of the fender
i have the factory 17x8, i had to trade with a friend of mine who had a set of 03 17x8s on his drag radials because i have a 02 and the center part is lighter on 02 bullitts than the 03s-04s. If you get a 17x9 front, you can run a 275/40 without any sidewall bubble, i personally wouldnt run such a wider tire, id go maybe with a 255/45 or 255/40 because when you get to those larger size in front, the steering tends to follow the grooves in the road and makes it sorta annoying.... you know what imean, my g/fs WS6 has 275/40 and streeting is very rough.
hehe yea i love the look, i carried something out for someone today at work and walked by it and grinned lol i felt like a child again lol.....
i took some pics in more light then the last ones, they arent that much better than first set because it was 530 and this damn daylights saving time is back to fall back so it gets dark early.
i will take some clean car shots with pure day light soon...

You mentioned that the car is lowered but from the pics you've provided it doesn't appear like the rear is lowered much if at all, is it just the angles of the pics?

yea car is lowered with ford racing c springs 1.5 front 1 back. i love that look because mustangs look great from rear when it sits higher than front then you put some fatties on and it looks wicked.
also i believe a 275/40 has a slightly taller sidewall that would fill in the wheel well better.
notice in these pics..
