id say go with the smaller size rim but go wide with meats. you can look good with meat tires and still be flush and have a bit taller sidewall. mustangs still look aggressive with wide tires and meats flush.

Meat flush is cool. Mustangs have flat fenders and flat fenders with flat sidewalls nice and flush is sweet. Plus with smaller wheels you can make it look racecarish with the taller sidewall. Not being able to go low enough can sometimes be made up for with a tall tire.

What's the deal with lowering it anyway? 3-4"? That barely covers the wheel gap. I'm sure someone makes coils for it. A racecor guy probably.
