i'll do the calipers when i put the new rims on as well. that will be key to getting them to look right.

black rims are hard to get to look right on a car that isn't black, i think

i personally wouldnt get yellow rims on a yellow car...or chrome, either allow or black, or black with a chrome lips. for ur car i'd get the black bullit rims witht he chrome lip, i think it'd look best. but its ur car. thats jut my suggestion cuz the yellow mite not match up u know..

if you have black accents on the car then black rims with a chrome lip would be the way to go. if not then i suggest only getting polished rims. ive seen yellow firebirds with black accents and black rims that looked awesome, but not any mustangs. most yellows i have seen have the polished aluminum rims. but as stated above, dont go with the yellow rims. that would be wayyyyy to much yellow

no no not yellow rims

i was thinking maybe just a pinstripe along the insides of the spokes
as long as i can match the car color (i'll be doing the caliper anyway)

totally yellow rims would look like crap

i might not do any yellow on it
again, i'm just sharing what i'm considering

98% sure it'll be black rims though

just a pinstripe probobly wouldnt look bad. my mistake in thinking you meant yellow rims lol. the black with the chrome would looks sweet if you are going to have a lot of black accents on the car (a lot but no too much). whichever you do get some pics of it!

yeaa, i'd go with the black rims and the chrome lips, all black rims only look ok on black cars(my opinion) but black rims chrome lips on yellow cars look good too, my friend as one, but my lisence is suspended so i cant really go out and take a pic of it =/ but i get back monday, soo i'll try ta show ya. but still it'll look good

im kinda leaning towards the black rims with chrome lip as well. alunimun rims would look good, but putting black with chrome on your car with some other black accents on the exterior would give it a more aggressive look and have a lil more custom appearance.

yea, those arent to much...i wouldnt order that online tho, there are places that already have it. i agree with the no body paint til uve got sum mods. also the black rims will give a look that not alot of ppl have, so ppl will take more then just a glance at ur car.
