Nothing special. Just ordered wheels that are made for the '05+. Don't try to order wheels for the previous body styles even though the bolt pattern is correct if you want wheels this huge because the offset becomes an important facter. It is not as vital with smaller wheels. They are 20x9 up front and 20x10.5 rear. I lowered with the Saleen suspension kit which reduced clearance but looks sick and improved cornering. It fill the fender wells pretty nicely as you see but I still have full turning ability.
Anything I forgot? or anything else?

My wheels are the staggered Mach black 20's by AFS which is some company in Cali. I was a little timid when I ordered them because they mainly sell on e-bay and they were not that expensive at all; however, the wheels fit perfectly, they come with the tri-bar pony centercap, they look insanely amazing, and they show no signs of wear.
Also, they do come in 18's.

Although 20s on an S197 look good-not too blingy, the tires are just too expensive. |

it depends on what you want to do with the car... id say 20's would kill your launch... youd have NO give in the sidewall... haha those are like rubberbands  |

I fair decently at the track on the 20's. I know I will never break any reconds on them but I can still drop tire pressure to about 23psi and grip decently with sub 2.0 second 60'.

Not really fair to compare your times and to Red Devil. One thing is you kept you PSI to high and how much power are putting down? A car with 400hp, 376 LBS TQ even with 20" rims will almost always beat a car with 260 hp/280 LBS tq. |

sorry. Mustangs look carnival silly with anything larger then 18's anyway.. 20's look like a Jada playtoy you get at K mart lol.. Don't worry Ill remember the names of those with 17's.. Not everyone digs the dubs look..  BUT those mach one type wheels are outstanding looking..
