Re: 55-59 wheel options
I heard I needed to run at least 16" preferably larger for the lowered axle and lowered springs, but not positive

Re: 55-59 wheel options
Your running a mustang ii suspension aren't you. Im running the lowered axle theres less gtound clearance so you have to run a larger wheel.

Much better selection of tires for 16s than 15s.
