18' axis super hiro's. black with the white stripe. get them.
I personally don't like the look of black rims (with or without lip accent), on a white car. Looks odd to me, like white on white, silver on silver, etc...

PM 4liter6 he has a set of 18" chrome Bullits with brand new tires for sale, I'm sure he would make you a good deal.

Thamks for the tip - he already PM'd me with a heads-up; if I go 18" I'm keeping his offer in mind.

Don't wanna be a partypooper but what is the deal with Bullitts? I don't see what everyone sees in them, they just look so...stock.

Classic muscle car look. I haven't seen anything else that I would put on my car except maybe Weld drag lites or Centerline retrostyle.

Ditto. Like on my '67 Firebird, nothing would do but Cragar SS. They just fit, perfectly. Classic.
And on the 2005+ Mustang, for me personally, there is no other rim than the Bullitt.
You want stock - look at the ones that came stock on my '06. Not a big fan of them...

So, then!

Finally made my decision. Going staggered: deep-dish chrome 18x9 Bullitts in front, deep-dish chrome 18x10 Bullitts in back. I am planning to get them from American Muscle, sans tires - get the tires, mounting, balancing locally. But they're out of 18x10, and I PM'd for the discount code a few days ago but haven't heard back yet. Which is OK - I'm not in a big hurry to spend money - going to Japan later this year and need to keep some money aside for hotels and fun. Soon as I get the discount code, will order the 18x9's. Then the 18x10's when back in stock. Then tires and mounting... Slowly, slowly...
