Welcome! Those wheels are gonna look great on the car. I say lower it too though.

I was considering it but wasn't sure how much I could lower it, because I ordered some wide tires for it 275/40 front 315/35 back. Any Suggestions?

Mine are 285/40 out back and 265/35 up front and my car is pretty slammed. I'd say you could lower it at least 1.5" up front and 1" out back without running into any problems. Plus you have 17's so you will be fine.

Alright thanks a lot, I'll try and find some springs in the next 2-3 weeks cause I definitely want it lowered

No problem! It's always been my opinion that a nice set of wheels and some lowering springs go hand in hand on any car.
Post up some pics once you get the wheels!

Will do, I'm kind of tied up in the motor so that's where all my mod money had went. When I got the car a week ago the guy I bought it from had underdrive-pullies from god knows what, and two different cylinder heads, and a ton of vacuum leaks. So now I'm putting gt40 heads, PP typhoon intake, and C&L CAI and 4:10 gears. I did get some new one piece lights, cobra bumper, and a gtr800 wing. I'll post pics of them when I get them put on.

Wow that's a mess... Sounds like you're on the right track though!
All those mods + some nice lowering springs is gonna turn that car around completely.
Also I hadn't heard of that wing but I just looked it up and it looks pretty sweet, kinda like an S281 but stretched.

Thanks! The gtr wing is the same as the boss wing I think
I heard gtr800 and thought you meant the Daytona 800 and got very worried lol. Def off to a good start, congrats on the grab. As far as lowering, idk how your roads are but in NJ they are garbage. If you drop with an Eibach pro kit you will be fine, it's what I use and although its not as low as I want, it still allows my Mustang to be used on bad roads and steep inclines.
