I like em. Keep it like you have it and by all means do not pain them black. Black rims on any car is just not right unless you are 18 and under.

I dunno dude!
I've liked the way you've changed your V-6... but...
Those rims are a step backwards! Get away from factory ASAP!
At least paint them black!

Yeah ... bigger rims do look better on these cars ... but from what I have read here on the forum ... the bigger the wheel ... the slower the car ... and the 4.0 is fighting a losing battle already against the GT and quite a few other cars on the road. I'd rather have the 17" wheels and keep it a little quicker on the road .... The rear Roush springs will clean it up a little in the back ...
i can attest to that.. my car feels much slower with 20's than it did with 18" ... and I have light weight forged rims. I can't imagine what the ride would be like with a solid cast chrome 20" rim. I have read that chrome plating adds significant weight to a rim.

Have you considered painting the rim lips to match the exterior?



This quick PS doesn't really illustrate the point, but I think it looks good.
