After looking and debating, I'm really leaning toward the Foose Legends in chrome. I tried the simulater at discount tire but it's hard to tell as the car look cartoonish. Anyone have these wheels with a picture. Also I'm leaning toward the staggered look. 20x10's on the rear and 20x8.5 on the front. For tires i'm thinking Nitto nt555 with 245/35/20 up front and 275/30/20 on the rears. This is what the sales guy is recomending to me. Any input you might have on this setup would be great. Never bought tires for this type of car before. Will the ride be alot worst than stock?

Not to change your mind or anything but these are the wheels I will be getting when my 2012 arrives. Love them.

Those look good and I like the price but, I really like the legends. Getting them from the same place though.

Well I finnally order the chrome legends and Nitto nt555 tires. Hoping they get here the week. I ended up with the 8.5x20 with 245/40/20 up front and 10x20 with 275/35/20 on the back. Ford racing wheel sensors all around. I haven't posted any pics of the car yet but when I get the new wheels on I will post.

Looks pretty wicked. Something about those wheels really makes the 2010 + look nice.
