That's not true at all. lol


I think the Forgestars, F14s, RTR's look fine, my beef with them is they are FAR too common. In fact, they are so common some nonmustang people think they are a stock wheel! I heard some people walking by our cars at C&C and someone actually said that they were factory options because they saw so many cars there with them. Haha. Walking around the Mustang section, I could see how someone would think so because most of the Mustangs all look alike doing the same wheels and body mods.

you think they are common when in fact they are not. common to you bc you see them on forums which are the minority of mustang owners... i have yet to see a forgestar wheel from anyone not in this group...

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Once my engine is done I will be getting better pics. Hard to move the car with no engine or tranny in it.

I see your point as the market is huge for these cars, but Mustangs are very common as is so you are going to get quite a few doing similar modifications. Being that our cars a quite affordable most owners that get into the aftermarket modifications are going to go towards the more practical and budget based mod.
