Help Me find Rims!

[97Snake1668]

Hello all,
I am sick of my typical 17" rims and want some change. I am looking for some black, 5-spoke, with a polished lip. Prefer 18x9's and 18x10's for the setup. I thought I had found some but the backspacing isnt going to work out. I have seen too many of the black bullits (they look awesome on these cars) so I want to aviod being like everyone else. Another guy in my apt complex just bought another 06 Black GT and I had seeing the same car as mine. Luckily I have already lowered mine and my taillight/fog light black outs are on the way. Please everyone, help me stand out in the crowd. I would really like them to be not off the chart expensive (Foose, etc) if possible. I know I am asking alot but does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance Stangnet!

Semper Fi,
Kris

Here is a pic of a FR500 18" rim that is black w/ a polished lip.

Get in line with everyone else waiting for mustangtuning to retool their 18x9 18x10 deep dish bullits They currently require a lame spacer setup for the front wheels.(If its an 05 06s require 4 spacers) Supposedly they'll have the problem fixed in like a month or two.
I'd wait, you'll get the set for like $600 or $700 not sure...also they have nice polished lips you'll stand out for sure

go with the FR500 18" rims

www.groupawheels.com has a couple that are priced right in 5 spoke.

Ford Wheels - 18" Polished Bullit

Am partial to Ford products to keep that factory look going.
Here are my next two choices.

 

[GTRacerX]

Ford Racing 500C 18" Wheels

I think they look hot and the price is right.
Plus at 21LBs a piece you can't go wrong with these.

That's hilarious. The guy asks for suggestions on BLACK wheels and only one person posted black ones.

I would throw mine in there (the FR500's mentioned above) but they're not true 5-spokes. They're more of the old 60's wishbone style 5-spoke.

 

[97Snake1668]

I appreciate all the help. I do like the look of the FR500's but like I said, I dont want to be just another Mustang running around. I really hate the fact that the other guy moved in to my apt complex and that I see him daily. Just makes the search even harder.....

Thanks for the help and keep em coming all!!!

Did you notice thats $1219 PER WHEEL?

 

[GTRacerX]

Duh ! That was meant as a joke - LOL

For that price your better off getting the ASA AR1's 18x8 at $219.00 each

haha just making sure, those Ford Racing Fiskes are awesome if you could get all 4 for that price!

The group A wheels are available in black with machined lip. But zee must read el descriptiononni to see that.

You'de better go big

You'd better go big on what you buy! Whoes to say that this guy in your complex doesn't enjoy the look of your bad a$$ boss so much that he just pulls up online and finds the exact same wheel just to throw it on his too. Now how much would that p*ss a guy off? I say come with the heat and get what no one else is riding on in town to make sure he doesn't play a nice game of copy cat.

 

[97Snake1668]

I havent even talked to the guy yet but if he does something like that, I will have many a strong word for him.
