Opinions???
Im lookin at rims for my black 00. Its either betwen http://www.rollinonchrome.de/magento...ined_lip_2.jpg
or http://www.wheelsnext.com/images/whe...04_black_2.jpg im basicly debating on the crome lip or not.. Any opinions are appreciated. |
Based on your other thread I am going to assume these are 15's if that's the case then in all honesty I think a set of stock wheels would look better. I know your on a tight budget but check these out http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-Bl...Q5fAccessories Brand new wheels and tires in a similarish LOL style for just over $830 shipped with mounting and balancing. And if you do decide to keep your stock tires and just get rims don't forget to factor in the price to have the tires swapped over to the new rims. I'm guessing that will cost pretty close to $100 in addition to the price of the rims alone.

Either one of the rims in your links wont look good in 15 inch.
Look for a used set of stock 17's at least. I scored a set of stock 17inch bullits with tires for $250. Deals are out there, dont settle on 15inch wheels. |
I like the all black one, but listen to ziggy.
|
Dont like either of em to be honest.
As above.17s |
The wheels you have right now are those ugly aluminum 15" ones aren't they? That's what I was forced to use for almost two years. You won't be happy unless you get 17" or bigger... and try sticking to factory style wheels. In most cases the 'custom' wheels just don't look good, however there are exception.
Cut grass this summer... that will get you enough cash for staggered bullitts. That's how I got mine. |
LMAO. You guys are awesome. I actually am getting 17's so be easy on me. I ran into some money so im getting wheel and tire package. So enough with all hate and tell me what you think lol.

can't go wrong with 03 cobra rims either. |
What color is your car, will help when choosing rims... Have any pics of your ride we can see to better help you?
|
I have a black car. Oringinally wanted black American Racing Santa Cruz whels but now im looking at the two sets i have links for in my 1st post. Im just not sure if i want black wheels with the chrome lip or not.
|
I don't like either of the wheels you posted. How much are you willing to spend on the wheels and tires?
|
Willing to spend about $1000 for wheels and tires that are already mounted and balanced.

Whitestang04 thanks for the ebay link...I just bought em.

The 10th anniversary Cobra rims are 1k, not my favorite but i have seen a black set on a black car that looked good These are the ones I got... would look sweet on a black car! Granted they were on sale when I got them so i paid just under 1k http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...Wheel-Tire-Kit I am not overly impressed with the sumi's on there... they get good dry traction but when the roads are wet they get maybe as good as the 275 Riken raptors i had on before with my old rims |

I agree with Shadow Stang, 17" Bullitts or FR500's.

I am planing on getting staggered Black '03 Cobra wheels.
|
I just hate wheels with chrome/polished lips. Thats why I could never buy black bullitts or FR500s. I'd have to buy them and then get them powdercoated all black.

My thing with wheels, is they have to be staggered. I love mustangs with wide rear tires. Theres a GT in my neighborhood with 245's... and even tho it could blow my doors off, mine looks a bit meaner with the staggered setup. To me anyway. |

I don't like them all black unless it's a satin/semigloss like the new "Stealth" FR's from cruizin concepts or black chrome (which flake easily from what I've heard) http://www.cruizinconceptswholesale....atblack_lg.jpg |

I like the polished lip personally. :p

I've yet to decide on what wheels the Termi is getting. Trying to decide between satin black 18" FR500s, 18" 03-04 Cobras, or 18" Enkei RPF1s. I'll probably end up with the RPF1s since they're super lightweight, and the FR500s as a daily wheel. |
I always have tire wet on so the gloss doesnt make my tires look that faded, besides i like the way the glossy black glimmers when you are in motion. I never really to used to the all black rims either... just not my style. I like how it hits an intermediate between stealthy and showy
I have gotten a ton of compliments on my new staggered set up, although I hate when i have to admit my car really isn't all that fast when I get asked what it can do. |
advice
I'm looking for advice on what to do with my 2010 Mustang, other than garage it for the winter, for driving in the New England snow. Way back, we used to use snow tires on the rear for rear wheel drive cars...now the suggestion is to get 4 snows....I have all weather now, snow and mud....so, do I need snows? Most of my driving is highway.:confused:

just load some sand bags in the trunk and you should be good!
