Default Which wheels should I get?

I have a black 06 GT. Getting some wheels.
Debating on these two.

Only thing that concerns me with the shelby's is the cobra emblem and it making the car
wanna-be cobra looking. Heres the pics.
Now lets hear the opinions!

I would not worry about the Cobra emblem, they are Real Shelby wheels, the same could really be held true for the Roush wheels. Your car is not a Roush, but that does not mean your wheels cannot be, and that's what matters. Like on my 96 Cobra, I have the FRPP Chrome 95 Cobra R's on there and I did not change the emblem just because its not a Cobra R. Now if you were changin the cars emblems thats a different story.... So buy the wheels you like.

Where are you getting the Roush wheels (assuming that is the one you decide on)

So far im going to order direct.
The other places are charging just as much that I have seen and it seems like they have to order them first making it take longer.
Unless you have any suggestions

On your black Stang, I think the Roush looks awesome...

I have a few buddies that have the Razors on black cars and they look great that would be my choice.

I don't think you can go wrong with either choice. They both would look great on a black car. The chrome rousch's have looked good on every s197 I have seen, and on a black car with tint it would look very nice. I have seen the shelby's on a few, mostly grey or blue in color and they look good too, on a black car they would be understated a bit but probably give you a sinister look due to the dark color, plus it has a nice lip so that's cool too.

So picking between to winners, my choice would be decided based on size, width, and weight with the weight being most important for me.
