OK, I'm going a little crazy. I can't decide on a wheel.
I sold my bike, now it's time for wheels/tires.
I want 18x9 18x10 or 10.5. It seems like $1,500 should be enough to cover any of these options below.

Some quick thoughts.
- Chrome, I'm not so much bling, but it does look good on black.
- Chrome, I don't want them to peel or start looking like crap.
- Silver, I like these. They look clean. Easy to maintain.
- Machined, a nice option. No bling, but I have no experience with them.

Here are some of the options so far.
Any experience/thoughts on these.

My car, old camera, pix sucks.

I have always been a fan of the bullet style, some chrome dd bullets..as cliched as they are these days, would look badass

and you cant go wrong with fr500's...

I was tossing the Mach 1 wheel idea around.
I don't mind them.

I was favoring the chrome saleens too.
Anyone have the chrome ones from American Muscle?
I guess my only fear is how well the chrome holds up.

Simple. Chrome Saleens. They look good on just about anything but look great on black. Hypercoat Saleens would look great too.

Chrome saleens would look bad a$$ and so would the machined 03 cobras .... Anthracite DD FR500's would look the best though.. look on the back of this months 5.0 & SF, there's a black cobra with anthracite FR500's and it's probably the best combo i ever seen.

Black bullitts with the chrome lip would look sick on your car. Black on black

Does anyone have this tire set up - 265/35-18 front and 285/35-18 back?
I'm wondering if the 265s will rub, my car is lowered with H&R ss springs.
I have 255 front 275 back now, but wouldn't mind going a tad wider.

I'm fairly certain these are the hypercoated FR500's, I have a set of 18x9 18x10 and run 265, 295 tires with them...
