This thread probably belongs in the "Modified" section. Lots of pics there showing different aftermarket wheels guys are running.

Ridler 695 - 17X7, 4" backspace with 215/55/R17.

Slight modification to the finder skirts - gap was +/- 1/8th inch and I wanted a little more room to allow for geometry changes as the car moves down the road.

Thanks - seems the level of "sweetness" is directly related to the amount of money I throw at it.

Still have a ways to go before I match that car of yours though, stance is perfect IMHO.

Wow. thanks. It's nice to know what they lok like on the car. Do skirts fit with these wheels?

I don't know for sure. The skirts that came w/ mine are in my store room somewhere. Not planning on running them.

I have 1-1/2" spacers (adapters) on it in the pic, and the rear rubber is 235/60/16. Honestly, I don't see a reason skirts wouldn't fit w/ these wheels. Next time I am over at my store room I'll grab the skirts & give it a try.

I like the look of those mustang wheels - different that what you usually see.

If the spacers are on the rear wheels, then the skirts will definitely fit.

Allan, that's the same thing I thought when I saw them.

Yep, the spacers are on the front & back in the pic above.
