Posted from Mustangworld.. Wow does the 05 look much better with just a simple wheel change (although im sure these are a pretty penny)
Tempting me to trade my 01 in.. hmm
I dont know if they can improve, but i can only imgine saleen and roush will come out with some interesting designs ( hard to tell from the last MM&FF pics)


Just looks sinister!!

I knew the 05's had potential, that's why I'm waiting for a couple years. I want to see what Ford and the aftermarket has to offer and then build a really nice example.

PS. this is a repost. here

Those GFG wheels are indeed a pretty penny. I believe those specific wheels range between 650-800 a wheel. Not quite HRE territory, but those are only a 2 piece wheel on the 05

needs a different hood. nothing there, needs something other than a giant piece of flat steel. throw some more curves or sharper angles or a scoop for poops sake. its too plain. it does look mean otherwise though

That thing looks mean as hell. I like it just like that. Those rims really set the car off. Those must be 19s, huh?

They are 20's from what I'm seeing on all the other post on this subject. Did anyone else notice one pic has fog lights, the other doesn't?

I looked into those wheels before I bought mine, they were nice but they were chrome, and I wanted a polished aluminum wheel.

I agree the new mustangs are nice but the wheels are blah...and that makes the car look blah. I saw a blue one in a BFG add in my Hod Rod Magazine and it had some really nice 18's and it looked really good like that. This one looks really good too and both of the cars just have aftermarket wheels. If I ever get an 05 or above I'd get some nice polished 18's and keep the stockers for winter.

Click to expand...

That BFG add says those are 20s on that one too...... They do look smaller than the ones on the car above though.

Yeah those rims really look good on the car, now imagine a meaner hood ( as someone else suggested) and some lowering springs. Would look like it's fast standing still.
