That looks great Doug!
So there were two variations of 18" wheels in the day. 18 x 8" like what Stephen has or 18 x 8.5" like what I had on my old Stang. BTW I had Continental Extreme Contact DWS sized 255 45 18 and were excellent in dry and wet. Take a look at them as well.
Picture whoring for reference lol.

Mine are also 18x8.5.
The "fanblade" wheels above and the "Bullitt" wheels that Stephen has are 8.5" wide, it's the other later 18" wheels that are only 8" wide.
Anybody running Mickey Thompson Tires? What do you think? Comments? Pros? Cons?
What would you choose? Nitto 555 255/45 18 or michelin Pilot Super Sports 235/50
18.
I chose the Nittos, but I think it's an apples to oranges comparison. By that I mean the Nitto 555 is a Mustang tire and the Micelins are a Corvette, Porsche, Viper tire.
Thanks to everyone who has been giving me asvice and opinions. I've pretty much explored most options. I talked to Frank at autotraxinc and was set to make a purchase when he told me he doesn't take visa. I have to use my visa in order to get close to $200 in drivers rewards towards these tires. Thanks to those who recommend him. Super nice guy and his shop looks great and clean. Ed has been great too offering help but I've been too indecisive and missed out on the Michelins. I've had a little medical issue come up that has been taking up a good deal of my time which is another reason why I haven't committed to anything yet. The real victim here are my winter tires. I'm sure they are not happy with me. Does anyone know if driving in this weather just wears them out more quickly and/or change the traction compound are they going to have less grip)? So thanks again to everyone for their help. Cheers!
