Vista Blues....Help!!!!

GatorKyle10 · Jan 24, 2011

Getting close to dropping the cash on a set of wheels. Just got 'er lowered with the Eibach Prokit so I need to complete the stance that I'm goin for. I definitely want to go staggered and am a fan of the deep dish look.
I've hit about every vendor and did that TireRack virtual rim deal, just can't pinpoint exactly what I want. :dunno Leaning towards chrome, but haven't seen too many Vista Blues sporting black or that hypercoating.

Post pics if you got 'em so I can get a better feel for how they will match up on the blue.

how did you find most of your parts

TrueBlue · Jan 24, 2011

I had 18" shelby razors on my 06 vista blue and they were gunmetal with a crom lip i thought they looked sweet. Chrome also loos good I will look for some pictures of my old car with the razors and post them.

There are a couple vistas on here with black wheels. They look good, but I always liked chrome with vista personally.

Yeah man I would love to see that set-up. That wheel is at the top of my list right now.

Just always keep your eyes peeled. When there is a good sale, I will jump on the parts that I've had in mind. For instance, Eibach was doing a huge rebate a few months ago and i was able to get my prokit for just under $200.
Found my GT500 front splitter on Craigslist for $40. Can't beat it.

They arent deep dish, but the backs are 10 inches and the fronts are 9.

please excuse the 4x4 look

Mine are 17x9 black all 4 corners...I want the 19" RTRs as soon as I can get the cash. Probably re-do my stripes in a diff color. I just ordered the black Shelby hood pins (on clearance at American muscle...$89 until Jan 31st!) and am blacking out my rear badge soon...

What size are you looking for 18's or 20's. I just bought some chrome cs40 20x9 and 20x10 for my 06 Blue Mustang. I think they are a pretty unique looking wheel and I am definitely a fan of the chrome on the blue stangs. I also like the godspeed omega wheels if you like the deep dish look the omegas are as deep as they get, they are at cruizin concepts. Right now I am trying to figure out the right tire size (I have a thread up). No matter what wheel you get the wrong tire will make it look horrible.

Ace that set-up looks awesome. Those are the '10 Shelby wheels right??

Yah I read your thread. I can't agree with you more about finding the right tire size...that makes or breaks the whole look of the wheel. Some just look awful with all that rubber.
I've looked at those Omegas...they took the deep dish to an extreme!
I can't really decide bw 18s or 20s. I am lowered so I want the wheel to try and finish up the gaps in my wheel well, but i dont want to take away driveability either and have to worry about rubs and ****.

Thanks for all the input so far and keep those pics coming!!!

Here are a few old pics. I'm working on lowering it some too.

GatorKyle10 · Jan 25, 2011

Thanks...those are what im leaning towards.. 18's right??

06VistaGT · Jan 25, 2011

Yep, 18x9 in the front, rear widened to 18x10.5

yes black with machined face.

Huge fan of staggered and deep dish myself. Here are a few of mine with black mesh

As soon as my tax refund hits the bank I'm ordering the same wheels Ace has.

bigpappy33 · Jan 26, 2011

I would say get the 19" GT500 wheels, or the RTRs are awesome looking. I really like the chrome Roush 18s on Vista though too.

06VistaGT · Jan 26, 2011

the RTRs would look sweet, I think chrome looks good on vista, but I would personally never own chrome wheels. I'm a fan of the subdued look.

Sorry I do not have any pictures of my old car with those rims.

I agree I believe the new GT500 has them 19" fron and 20" back great looking rim.
