Opinion on rims

mpt_1962 · 06-29-2007, 02:26 PM

What would look better...10.5" in the rear(deep dish of course) and 9" up front

either all chromed out torque rims
-or-
Chrome lip black torque center

opinions please...on a 2000 mustang gt all Black exterior.

This isnt really a tech question, but i'd go with the black rims with polished lip. I am a little biased though as that is what I have. Heres a pic.

mpt_1962 · 06-29-2007, 02:38 PM

yeah i didnt want to put it in tire section or 4.6 forums...i figured it was a "general" poll...lol...sorry guys but its an honest question. Im buying rims when i get back from iraq and more pictures would be cool...btw...00blkstanggt your pic didnt show up..at least i cant see it

my pics are showing up on my screen. Anyone else having a problem viewing mine?

MattJ · 06-29-2007, 04:12 PM

EVERYONE with a black mustang has black bullitts. Change it up and do something different from every other black mustang on the board.

StormsGT · 06-29-2007, 04:42 PM

Every black mustang on the board does not mean every black mustang..lol

I've only seen a couple of black mustangs in Pcola with black bullitts...actually, we don't even have that many black mustangs..haha

black rims are played out...but for a good reason I think...they look good on most cars. I obviously don't prefer them, or bullitts for that matter, but black rims do look quite good.

Nope, never been to a get together at DnB. I haven't see any mustang around here with deep dish bullitts, or black bullitts for that matter.

r3dn3ck · 06-30-2007, 09:49 AM

22x4's all around FTW. It'll look like a wagon but that's cool... it's different.

Cheddarbob · 06-30-2007, 02:35 PM

get some 17 cobra crome rims

mpt_1962 · 07-01-2007, 04:35 PM

Everyone on base has the cobra rims...ive only seen 2 mustangs with the torque rims on base...and they were the silver color...not chrome or black and neither were deep dish...

07-01-2007, 04:47 PM

by torques you basically mean Bullitt style right? if so EVERYONE on Earth has those.

SxyXc · 07-01-2007, 04:50 PM

i would say go black with a polished lip. They always look good to me on black cars!

Lance, where did you get your rims?? i was looking at some exactly like that and wanted to know how much you paid if you don't mind telling

Got them through a local Tire shop.They cost me $860 installed.

SxyXc · 07-02-2007, 09:27 PM

wow, i found some that look really close to that on e-bay, and they are $500 for the rims, then you still have to buy the tires mount them and get them balanced.. soo i think you got a really good price!

The $860 was just for the rim's.The tire's are around another $900.

Rim's=$860
Nitto 555's 275/35/18 front=$400
BFG DR's 315/35/18's=$577
