New kicks :)
Finally pulled the trigger on some black chrome fr500's being that my buddy has chrome I had to be just a tad different 
Two redfire s197's with same cams, exhaust, drop and rims haha..They're twins seriously.
Anyway I bought 18x9/10's. Was going to buy black tsw "rings" but wanted a deep dish. I think these set the car off perfectly. Still flashy but not screaming look at me! Kinda more stealthy lol. Went with nitto nt05's all the way around also
Love these
Anyway here are some pics:
Before how she looked:
And now:
I loved the nitto's so much I had to show my love for them lmao!
Alright I'll shut up lol
Thanks for looking!

Nice! I think the black chrome looks well! But.... I heard the finish on them is hard to keep in shape! Let me know how you like the NT05s, I almost got a set myself but was worried about tread life.
I just noticed your tires are really low profile? Whats the size? Looks funny IMO.

Thanks for the compliments. me and my buddy both love the nt05's. I had them on the rear on my bullets in a 245. When they're hot they get nice and sticky I went with 265/35's up front and 275/35's out back. Didn't go very wide for one discount tire was out of 285 and 295's lol and Jazzer recommended the narrower sizes due to I like my corners

In the nt05's nitto only makes the 265 in a 35. They do make a 40 profile in the 275 but I'm not much on going up on profile in the rear. Lol. The overall diameter would be just a tad off aswell.

Love those wheels, look good on the red bro...tires, not so much.
35 profile on a stang? That puts you at 25.5" diameter, 1.5 smaller than stock.
Your effective gearing with the 4.10's would be 4.30ish, so I hope they grip well.
Oh well, to each his own...enjoy the new look.
