Wheels opinions.. I NEED your input on size, brand, model.. etc

Mystry · November 21st, 2011, 06:23 PM

i have:

I like all the rims on americanmuscle.com basically, but imo... they are played out. cept the gt4s but im not sure if i like them enough to buy them

One of my favorite wheels of all time is the old hp imagine. i love mesh wheels... unfortunately i cant afford bbs or ccw classics. so thats out of the
question.

hp imagine/evo:

thing that sucks is im pretty sure they were discontinued.

another choice i had thought of was

xxr521:

kinda sorta remind me of classics which i do love. but im not to crazy how the front fits on our style mustangs if my memory serves me correctly.

Are there and other options out there? I did think about the slick and skinnies route only cuz i think it looks badass even tho.. my car is slow haha. Thank you for any help or advice! i will not do bullits. i had them once cuz i got them super duper cheap. but i wanna be some what unique

^those are easily mistakeable for saleens, good job on the work on them.

but imo if you dont mind paying for 18's and tires, go with the gt4's man. those are my all time favorites I just dont want to pay for 18" tires so i went with 03/04 cobra's.

Mystry · November 21st, 2011, 07:59 PM

i think im leaning towards 18s, and i want 10" wide wheels in back is why im getting new ones

BLUE91GT · November 21st, 2011, 08:40 PM

10th Anniversery Chrome Cobra's 18" 315's on the back and 275's on the front. I love those wheels! Just my 02

Mystry · November 21st, 2011, 09:29 PM

that sounds expensive lol

TeMoney14 · November 21st, 2011, 09:57 PM

I am absolutely in love with the black chrome saleens!

Mystry · November 21st, 2011, 10:42 PM

i thought about that but alot of people have saleen wheels

Mighty Stang · November 21st, 2011, 10:47 PM

go for the 10.5 in the back and run 315ssssssss

Eagle2000GT · November 21st, 2011, 11:41 PM

Well, your car is not a '96 Mustang and those are the exact same wheels that came on my car. They don't look that bad. I changed them out because I wanted to run bigger tires on the back. I'm performance orientated. If you don't gain anything performance wise, then why change?

That said, I absolutely hate black wheels. They look like a car that lost its hubcaps. I really think that white car would look best with chrome. (But, I'm old school.)

Mike113 · November 22nd, 2011, 12:40 AM

If your on a budget, you can paint your wheels. I have the same exact wheels as you...

If you can afford it, I'd go with some 18's. 10/10.5 outback and 9 upfront is pretty common. Those black wheels that you posted look pretty sick.

My personal favorite wheel on a white Mustang is a black Fr500

xxr521s
those do look sick
try 18x9 in front and 18x10.5 in back with 315s. such a sexy stance

Mystry · November 22nd, 2011, 07:36 AM

im performance orientated too.. lol. and i know its not a 96..lol my old mustang was. i just havent changed that thing by my avitar yet. its an 03. I agree on the chrome statement. but chrome wheels are heavy as shit. lol

I was thinking anthracite or a silver color

Orange2V · November 22nd, 2011, 07:42 AM

I have always liked the FR500 look

Mystry · November 26th, 2011, 04:56 PM

one of my best buddies is getting fr500s... and my other buddy already has them.. im good on those haha
