silver r's are sooo much cooler than chrome. ifyou keep your car shiny along with the rims at all times, then chrome is nice, but i like silver, and 18's would look pimp

I like sivler with sertian color cars. But if your car is black, I would go with chrome. But thats my opinion, You go with what you like and can afford.

Id go with chrome..... when the wheels sparkle makes the whole car look clean hahaha...... Plus Im a chick so I like anything that I can see my reflection in lol</P>


17's are nice, 18's are real nice but Id go with 17's for performance... good cornering, 18's are just too big...... But thats just me.....</P>

ide go with the 2000's...it seems like 9 out of 10 mustangs with cobra wheels on them have the standard 95 or 98's on them...not nearly as many people have the 2000s, and i personally think the 17s look to small.

Problem is, the taller the wheel, the slower you go too...
