That's exactly what I thought as well. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing this one come together.

I'm with RR and hiwayman, I think the rear wheels are a bit too big. I like the look of big wheels on a 'cuda and a few other cars, but IMHO on the mustang they look out of proportion with the rest of the car. Other than that I think the car is incredible!

yeah the wheels might look big now, but have you ever seen a car from alloway that you did not like. That guy has an eye for stance. Maybe the car is not at ride height in the rear. And I'm sure that those are not the wheels going on the car.

i will wait and decide when it is done. That thing is awesome.

let's call it a 20/22

Since it's a KDW-2 these are the possible sizes

295 x 0.45 30.45 tall
305 x 0.50 32.01 tall

285 x 0.35 29.86 tall
295 x 0.40 31.30 tall
295 x 0.45 32.46 tall
305 x 0.40 31.61 tall

If you ran the common - 18" which seems to be the choice on this site
ps - yep this is the big dog one

335 x 0.30 25.91 tall

it's about 4" taller then the above. I quaranty that if you put a 26" tall tire on this car is would look dinky and we would be saying man it needs a bigger tire

SLO65 - you are right on the money. They are 20's 265's.




Like Bobby told me today "wheels are like boobs, while the stock ones look alright, big ones look really good." While I can't argue with that- the big wheel deal is an Alloway trademark. With two SMOY winners under his belt and one RU last year (Challenger), it looks like the judges tend to agree with the man.

I'll post more pics as they are available.

Have a great weekend; time for Mai Tai's!

I think Alloway is onto something and more people will start boarding the wagon soon. Sort of looks like this doensn't it?
