So the big day is finally here... going to paint on monday...

I picked up the new rims/tires today... they looks so nice.

My question is, any opinion upon which color of black? I was thinking the new tuxedo black metallic...

It doesn't have to be a ford color, if it looks good let me know.

Personally, i think you could choose a better color than black to match those wheels.

I like black, that car with chrome saleens would be better IMO.

I think white would look good with those wheels, im partial to marroons and reds with black wheels also. I just like to see some kind of contrast and a overall look that flows together

Are those the 17x8 Bullits from AmericanMuscle? I was thinking about going 5 lug and getting those. How do you like the stance of the car on 17x8's? I'm also considering saying 4 lug and going with 17x8 Black Salleen SC's repos.

17x8 up front, 17x9 out back.

sn95 length axles out back, +30mm offset fronts, +45mm offset rear wheels.

245/45-17 up front and 275/40-17 rears.

I love them.
