so Chrome or Black chrome?

bluestang1724 · October 5th, 2011, 10:23 AM

I have a 03 redfire cobra with the factory wheels and im wanting to upgrade to some stickier tires but dont want to waste money on tires b/c id like to eventually get some saleen's.

but I cant decide between chrome or black chrome. both look great with the Redfire. im looking more towards 18's. so what do you guys think? 17's, 18's, chrome, or black chrome?

I have 18" black chrome FR500's on my redfire...

if you have the money, black chrome.

Really? well I'll keep an eye out for some black chrome wheels to see in person. I drive past a mustang every 30 seconds where I live and still havent seen any

That's a good thing if you don't want to be like everyone else! Definitely try to find some to look at....IMO, they're awesome. I don't like chrome, and I don't like all black, so black chrome was perfect for me

.

yea thats true. im not a fan of black espically on redfire. and i like chrome but depends on what its with. im very picky and dont like to be super flashy and gaudy. I just like a nice clean look.

I switched from chrome 03 Cobra's to black Chrome...I liked it and it looked really nice while it lasted, but the finish ended up deteriorating within maybe a year (I've also talked to quite a few people who have all had the same problem). I'm not sure if they have gotten better with the finish, but good luck! It does look good if it'll last.

I'm betting you will love black chrome then.

Luckily, I haven't had a single problem with the finish on mine and they've been on for almost a year I think....

bluestang1724 · October 5th, 2011, 11:13 AM

yea im probably gna go with black chrome. tinkerbell's look amazing with the redfire.

That's good! I had mine about 4 years ago when they pretty much first came out with the color, so that's why I'm saying hopefully they improved the finish. Seems like you've had luck with them, so that's a good sign! It's for sure a cool color.
