What wheels for me?


So Im stuck between two wheels for my new edge. I have a 2000 black GT, but cant decide if I want chrome or black wheels. I know for sure that I want bullit wheels, but cant decide which will look best on my car. What do you guys think?


Btw, they will be 17 x 9 all around. I wanted a 10.5 in the back, but due to the fact that my car is a daily driver and needs all season wheels, I will only be able to do 17x9s.

Black. goes with your car. Chrome is nice for engine parts and classic cars, but for newer vehicles it looks a little donk-ish. I have silver bullits on my '06 and i love them. I'm dreaming of black one day though. it's low profile, and they still have a shine to them. black wheels (especially bullits) just say 'I know what i'm doing, and I'm doing it right...' that's my two cents

Pics would help us give you a better idea.

For a Black New edge there are many options. Personally I do not like Chrome Bullitts. However, some Chrome Saleens would look killer. Black w/ a Polished lip will look good as well. All black to me looks bad on any car. Having no seperation between the tire and rim makes the rim look dirty to me.

As for the tires, and 10.5s, I don't see why you can no go that route. Where do you live? I live in South MS and DD my car with 10.5s in the back.

Bullitt wheels need more contrast than chrome provides. +1 for the black/chrome lip.

I live in West TN. I need all season tires because my car is a daily driver to and from school/work. During the winters, it usually drops below freezing.

I originally considered putting the Nittos NT555s on them, but Ive heard that during below freezing temperatures, the tires break down and crack.


I also considered during 18x9s all around with the black bullits. The 18s are deep dish and has more of the silver around. Will these fit all around?
