After going through the 20 page wheel thread on svtp I learned a few things...
1) matte black or charcoal looks horrible on silver stangs
2) 99% of mustangs have black wheels. 90% of those are some variation similar to the amr wheel.

3) there are not many silver stangs on that site.

If I go black it will have to be a gloss black with either a polished lip or some kind of color offset.

I think I have narrowed it down to chrome. Chrome always looks good on a silver car. What do y'all think?

I am liking the steeda spyders. The 20x9.5 weighs 30 lbs and the 20x11weighs 33lbs.

I personally like the machine way better than chrome. Chrome has been so overdone and if the plating isn't high quality it looks cheap.

On any other color car I would be in 100% agreeance... I saw a few silver cars with the machined wheel and it just didn't look AS good as the chrome. Wheel deciscions are a pain in the ass.

I think a dark competition grey would also look sexy, check out pics of the color on my Camaro I have posted up in the member rides section and let me know what you think.
