Wheel choices

[jayman33]

The 305 Steve is referring to is only the rear tire.

OP, look into the new TSW concave series, these are new for 2013 and should be available soon. Forgestar has a new wheel CF5V that is much different than their other styles. I'm a fan of the 19's, I have a set of Vossen CV2's for sale but as a set they're pretty expensive. Many of the companies that produce forged wheels are now coming out with the flow formed wheels due to the popularity, strength, weight and cost. HRE and ADV1 have developed a few flow formed wheels.

265/35 on front.

HRE and ADV1 make some badass wheels, but they are major money. Ouch!

You can just go right on their website. -

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.

I kind of like the Shelby wheels that Danny runs...

I do too. I pulled up those wheels and was disappointed to see the rivets.

Exactly why I have been saying what I have. lol.

The "rivets" on Danny's CS40 Shelby wheels were fake and he removed them making the wheels look MUCH better for that style of wheel.

People often mention the "rivets" in my wheels. The difference is that my wheels are real three piece wheels and require the assembly bolts to hold my wheels together. It is a love them or hate them look and not for everyone. I can't say I've always been a fan of the bolts either, but in the case of these wheels I really like them.

I thought something was different. I loved how they looked on his car and the CS40 is still one of the wheels I am thinking about. Glad to know the fake rivets are removable.

Your Camaro looks good, but after going through that wheel thread I want to avoid those colors on this car.

IF i was hitting the purchase button today it would be the 20x9.5 Machined Steeda Spyder with a 275 tire all the way around. I think that would be the best compromise on everything.... would still keep the Silver/Black theme I want without going full on black, wouldn't be "too" flashy, and that tire size would be a good choice for all the miles I put on the car as well. Still open to suggestions though!

[merlinmol]

Sounds good, now to just wait for the pics after you get it all done

This is not the same wheel, but this is how the machined w/black wheels look on a silver car.
These are 18's on a 2010.
