jay0heavenly couldn't have said it better:"If you're not paying for my car then who cares?" Cheftjpeck has his reasons for making a tribute car just like everyone else has their own reasons for customizing their rides the way they want it. Bashing someone for the way they choose to mod their car is worse then watching 2 5-year-olds bicker over whose favorite color is blue. It's just stupid. Get the wheels and screw everyone who thinks you shouldn't because you would be a "poser". Your car, your money, your rules.
Then why do we give ricers so much crap about how they do there car...

I am pretty sure ya'll think it is funny/ irritating to see a Type-RS Miata with Powered by V-Tec Stickers all over it. What's the difference?

Chef: I wasn't asking if you had a rolex or not, I was just using that as an example.

I was away after posting the thread. I just had to play some golf today. First off, yes I am a NU fan so I appreciate the GO BIG RED. I also appreciate your responses. I think I will go for it as most of you all said. It will be a good Christmas present from my wife. Do most of you all agree that the 18's are the best choice?

If it's the rims I'm thinking of, you can easily replace the center cap with the Pony cap or Ford Blue Oval. Can't you ??

as i said AmericanICON..to each his own...but this post isnt about me anyhow..I was posting mine as sarcasm and tongue in cheek...this post is about whether the guy should get cobra wheels or not...so I say go for it...as far as me being rice or whatever....so be it...its tribute to my dad and his car and my birth year...not a msutang show ive been to in town that people dont immediately get that....but you are obviously one of the great mustang gods who know all so be it...

It feels so good to finally be recognized!

I'm sorry I didn't "immediately get" that your car is obviously a tribute to your dad and your birth year. Don't be so defensive.. I didn't call your car rice; in fact, it looks good.

If these are the ones you are talking about they are nice. I have them on my black GT. I did get knock offs from discounttire for about 144 a piece.

I think Mustangs are made for modifying, it's YOUR car, do as you please. The GT500 rims are pretty cool, but like others have said, the 18" Bullitts are very sweet. Although I don't think you'll go wrong if you stick with OEM style Ford wheels. Your car will like sweet with the rims you want to get
