Black Ponys on my car? Pictures inside - comment please

srothfuss · May 20, 2006

I need help making this decision. Please see the before and after pictures to compare the regular tubines to the recently accuired black pony wheels. I know that the wheels are dusty, but this is just a trial to see if they even look good on my car. So fire away with comments about the rims.

------Before------

------After------

If I stay with the ponys I'll get some new rubber and clean them up a bit so they are less dusty.

i personally would take off the red stripe but i love them

My car is the exact same color so...

#1 - I agree with Mob - removing that orange stripe will really help (I removed mine and like it a lot better)

#2 - I'm not sure all black wheels look right on your car. All black wheels look great on black, charcoal, and silver cars, but I've never really liked them on cars with other colors. Just my opinion...

i personally think it looks good

I would like to see a pic a little further away from the car. I cant decide if I like them yet.

I like them!!

I think if the car was a little lower it would look great.

I thought a better photo would be required:

I have some B springs in the garage to drop the car a little, along with some C/C plates. I just need a bump steer and my MM panhard rod before I finish the drop.

As for the "red" stripe (I think it looks orange) I'll have it removed soon.

Looks decent. Would look better with a polished lip, IMHO

On a side note, what is the best way to remove that silly orange stripe? It really messes up the flow of my two toned GT

i like it alot.

rebelleader · May 20, 2006

I like them. But that stripe needs to go!!!

DemonGT · May 20, 2006

dont like it, would rather just have the OEM pony's

87Mustang351 · May 20, 2006

i think they are nice but i think they would look much better with a white lettered tire to make it stand out somemore black with black is 2 plain and maybe even get the chrom lip on them i like them thought there nice man!

I agree. They would look killer with a silver lip. Id try it with one wheel and if you don't like it paint it back black. It would seperate the black wheel from the black of the tire and give it a better look against your car..

polish lip > all black

Don't like it.
Up close it's decent, but from far away it looks like honda rims missing the hub caps.

+3 If you like ponys (I do) IMO the 17x8 Pony R is your wheel.

I like them, but if you want regular ponies send me a PM, even trade.
