Ok, how do you guys feel about Mesh-style wheels on 'stangs? I'm talking wheels like Super D's HRE's or BigPappi's wheels. I think when done right they look hot, but whats the general consensus? Anyone have pics of these type of wheels on a stang?

Bigpappy has it right, BBS= erection for sure. Her Name is Ponie, those KMC's look a lot better than I thought, but I suppose I am biased cause they look like the KMC Backseats that they sell for fullsize trucks. I like those DPE's you posted, especially with the rivets. ReverendDexter, Pics of the Cobra???

Keep the Pics comin'! :yes

Hahaha, I do, but you probably don't want to see 'em. It's on an SN95 that's dirty as hell and still at stock ride height. Oh, and I don't have center caps.

I'm definitely not a big wheel/tire guy - I'd have 15" Draglites on my car if they'd fit. But the "mesh" rims in this thread look pretty good!

I love mesh wheels and I have been considering selling the saleens. The one thing about 20'' mesh wheels(in my opinion) is I think to really set them off, you need big brakes. With mesh wheels you see a lot of rotor and caliper. We all know how stock rotors get a lot of surface rust around the edges. I may be picky but those little details stick out to me.

Dexter, car looks good regardless of dirt, or missing center caps. could use a drop though. FasterThanThem, LM-reps? Still produced by BBS?

JAY'SRED02, I can see what you mean, not only about the rusty stockers but the need for more filling in that space.

Thanks, and it sounds like I should be getting some H&Rs here in the next week or so, so that drop should get taken care of

SEX-Y. Ok so whenever I get around to buying a mustang, I'll be needing mesh wheels for sure...

That '10 looks good too, but reminds me of the wheels they used on the USAF mustang, which was cool, but waaaayyyy over done.

Any other pics guys???

You dont really see too many new edge's with mesh wheels. Im looking for a set of staggered deep dish meshies for my 99 GT. Possibly even a colormatched lip or vinyl stripe. Its time to retire the saleens.
