    New wheeels

    For those of you that don't know me I have an all black 08 mustang gt. I am currently looking to get new rims and tires.
    I was set on getting the fr500 in anthracite but there is a nation wide back order, and my currents tires are bald so I can't wait any longer.
    I am looking around for other rims and found theses stealth black fr500.



    Only problem is that I can't find a single picture of theses rims on a stang.
    Tell me what you guys think and please shoot me any suggestions.

    The rims look cool but, all black rims on a black car... just don't like. If there was a polished lip, that might be different but, black tires, black rims, and black car... not diggin' it.

    Yeah I was against the all black look but it is growing on me now. I personally don't like the chrome lip. Here is a blue termi with them on http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums...onic-blue.html

    Can't find any decent pics of them on a 5th gen really. Black chrome stand out a little too much for me. Any other rims besides fr500 that u think will look good?

    Sounds like you don't want the rims to stand out so, black might be the way to go.
    The pic of the '03 Sonic blue Terminator doesn't look good with those wheels in my opinion but, there are those that like all black and others that like contrast of chrome or aluminum. I personally like the bullet rims that Julie has on the GT/CS but, much wider!

    the wheels that jordan has on his red car would look really good on yours.

    Austy wants to murder his car!

    Any updates on tire/wheel selection yet? I hope so if your tires were getting bad a few months ago LOL.
