I have 255/45/17 ZR1 Toyos all the way around mine. I wanted to be able to rotate at least front to back. They fit great even with my new springs. Good luck.

NCMustangMan,

Sweet ride man! How do you like the MMR intake, I have been eyeing it on v6mustangstuff.com for awhile now.

I love the MMR. I bought my intake and high flow tube from Don at V6Mustangstuff.com who has been great to work with on all my orders. I put them on in about 15 minutes and have had no issues with the check engine light. I would suggest you take extra care when removing and installing the air flow sensor as it is a really delicate item. I plan to add a tune later this summer and look forward to really seeing what all the mods will really do. I attached a photo of my under hood so you could see how it looks in my car. Good luck!

do whatever you want just make sure you have a high offset so you can tuck the wheels
