First off before you start saying anything. Let's stop you right there shall we.

This Paul character is also the guy that's spoken to you on at least 2 pms alright. I'm also the guy that used to work for need 4 speed ,helped consult with Mrr for the m350 and developed the project 6gr wheel besides a number of other things for this community so be very careful how you accuse people.

Second off this ain't easy and lazy stuff ask any vendor here we work our butts off to provide our clients with proper information you don't like it by all means you don't need to use it but do not bash anyone here because of what you consider lazy and easy my friend because you are very wrong.

And multiple times I had to correct you on sizing.

Let's keep on topic.

Wrong - the size I recommended is 27.4" tall. 28.7" - 27.4" = 1.3" shorter overall. We are talking about the rear tire here.

If your goal was for the fat tire look, well never mind then. Many though don't know any better.

My issue is that vendors are recommending this type of fitment because its lazy and easy.

Also - you need to realize that an overall increase in tire height is changing your final drive ratio. Technically you've slowed yourself down and changed your speedometer to read incorrectly as well.
My speedometer read slow with the stock tires and now its off by 1-2 mph so I am now worried about that. If you look at all the questions in the aggressive tire fitment section a lot of guys want the same look or more extreme than I have. They ask Paul if it will fit and he tells them yes or no. I have never once read where he told someone what to do with their car and have seen nothing but praise from customers when they get their new wheels on their car so if its not for you then simply dont buy it !!

maybe a picture will help

this is your rear tire and my tire suggestion
Let's agree to disagree since neither of us will agree with the other.

I've done over 900+ setups so I've done something right.

Just do not bash on anyone here it's wrong it's childlike and no one likes it.

No bashing. Calling someone an idiot or stupid is bashing. Saying I don't prefer that look and backing up with legit factual information is not.

I have a setup in mind and I'll post pics when done. :headbang:

I'm all about helping other owners make the best decisions. I've owned mustangs for almost 20 years. I know what works, what doesn't. Just trying to pass that on.

You have a very unique way of informing people thats for sure. Calling out Paul on here is not going to get you off to a good start. He is by far the most informative and helpful vendor on here and I didnt even buy my rims off him.

Well now that that's settled.
If I'm looking at a 20 x 10/11 setup... What offsets would be ideal? I want something a bit more aggressive than the ff15 setup I'm coming from. Thanks

MRR FS01 wheels ..... 20x10 front with 35 offset and 20x11 rears with 50 offset. Just threw them on today. Nothing rubs and just enough room for the wheels to tuck when I lower it without having to run crazy camber. Paul knows his stuff and MRR will make the correct offsets ... you can't go wrong!

285/35/20 front
305/35/20 rears

10 et 32 is fine and for the 11 et 45 it's doable but no 315 it's too aggressive I'd say a et 48 of you wanna rock a 315

I had 315 on my ff15 and they were ridiculously big compared to fronts. I'm looking to land somewhere in the 295/305 range.

With a 10/11 setup I'll stick with 275/35/20 in front and maybe 295/35/20 in back?
