So the 18x9 saleen polished aluminum reps are gone. I purchased a set of 18x9/10 cobra r gunmetal deep dish wheels, still gotta install the rear tires hence the cutoff pic lol.

Man honestly these look 10 times better in person than the saleens. Thats for sure

The lexus is stock besides tanabe lowering springs(however the lex is getting a turbo before the mustang gets a blower)

The bulitt brakes are a big big difference instopping power and of course looks.
 
Well that's not deep dish that's just wider. Deep dish is when the wheel has a lip to it and technically the saleen wheel doesn't. Plus the way the 94-98 body style mustang is all bubbly and round the stealth like cut of the saleen wheels belongs on the new edge. That's exactly what they were made for and they are reps of the new edge saleens as my body style had totally diff saleen wheels on it.
 
I really like the colored Cobra R's. They look very nice on a red car too. I'm debating on changing when I need tires. I'm getting old of my 10th anny's. I really like the Anthracite R's too, in 18x9 all the way around on my Rio Red 'vert too. Everybody has Saleen's, FR500's and Bullitt's by me. I think some colored Cobra R or those new SVE Drift's in silver would look nice on mine!

More pictures dude!
 
Those aren't deep dish :scratch:

I guess not in the traditional sense, since the style of wheel prevents the wideer lip from portruding out behond the rest of the wheel, but it is a deep lip wheel regardless and the same 10" width that his current wheels are? :shrug:

If you want the DD "fat" lip style Saleens, you're going to have to stick with their older style Fox wheel. They look equally bad ass. :nice:
