Yeah, I bought a 3.7 Premium and bought 18" chrome wheels from American Muscle over the Performance package and wheels. Plus, Ford did not offer any nice wheels, inho. I settled on the factory 17", I use them as my winter tires. I tossed out the all season factory tires, they were worthless in the snow.

I wish I had the Perfomance Package but I agree with you, those are not good looking wheels. Plus extra bonus 19" wheels bring with it expensive tires from what I hear.

I have the same wheels on mine, my car is white If it came with the black wheels it might not be too bad but I got the gray ones just like yours. Some people like it not me. I have CS1's sitting in the basement waiting on some warm weather to put them on.

I like them, but I have a gray car, so they match. I also added some small spacers cause the offset sucks. It still sucks, but not as bad as before.

Yeah i feel ya. I dont like mine that much.. in specific angles they look good, when the silver spokes are only visable. i dont like the gray part about the wheels. plus the fact that they've pretty much got like 50+ offset. thats ridiculous. but whatever ford tested to give the best results as far as economy and efficiency. cant wait to get my hands on a new set of wheels.

Those appear to be just a different color than the black GT California Special 19" wheels I have on mine. I don't hate them but I also am not in love with them. Had a chance to get a great deal on a set of Brembo's and they won't clear the wheel. Don't want spacers & can't afford new wheels right now.

My favorite OEM wheels are the one's on the Brembo GT's.
