Default I am looking for your opinions on this wheel

Thanks to Xeno, I have an idea on how these will look on my car. Looking for your honest opinions. I like them the wife thinks there is not enough black in them.. What do you all think? The wheel is the Carroll Shelby - CS40 (Black w/ Machined Lip). Set on 20x10 and 20x9 set up with a slight drop.

Thanks again for the chop Xeno.

i think it looks good, much better than stock but remember that it is your car so don't be persuaded by my opinion or anyone elses if you think something else would look better. imo, you should get springs at the same time when you get any wheels.

If you don't put the deep dish up front, lol, that combo is a winner.
Go for it.
Not a big fan of the "Shelby" name on them... unless you have such a car of course.

I really like that look with the color you have. It give a vintage feel IMO. Go for it dude. Plus it's not something you see every day either.

Those do flow well!!

Go for it!

But as with Pascal, I was a bit disappointed that all the CS wheels now come with the Shelby script in the lip. When I ordered my CS69s, none of the online pictures had the script, yet mine showed up with them. When I asked about it, was told it was a design change and all CS wheels now come with it. Although not that noticable, you either have to live with it or go with a different brand rim.

I ordered mine from this place as they have the best pricing on all CS wheels http://www.buywheelstoday.com/produc...ned+Lip%29.bwt

I actually think the CS40's are the right blend of black and chrome for a windveil mustang...I approve.
