Uhm if your going 17X9's in the front be prepared to have some rocks thrown up onto the side of your front 1/4 panels. I have 18X9's and the bottom half of the tire sticks out about an inch. I'd say gunmetal/black, always looks good w/ silver IMO

Yeah please don't get cobra r's. Even tho i'm not gettin wheels any time soon i'm thinkin about black FR500's or 03-04 cobras, or maybe black bullits with a chrome lip. Either way good luck.

Cobra R's are so 5 years ago. Go with the bullits for the classic look, or fr500's. Both in black with silver lip.

20" cobra rs lol j/k
View attachment 467761

I really like the 18" chrome dd bullitts if your gonna go that route.

But then again im not a fan of silver cars

Tell you the truth any rim is gonna look good that is made for mustangs.

The new ford gt wheels look good too.
