Default Pics of Steeda Ultralight wheels on 05 up

Well my search of the internet turned up nothing as far as pics of the steeda ultralight wheels on an 05 up. I know they started making them with the correct off set a while ago so someone must have them.

I am currently in a toss up between these, Pentars, CTR's and 18" DD.

I also welcome any opinions on which wheel to go with for a satin silver stang.

Appearance mods are going to be basic, C pillar scoops, CDC blackout panel, GT-500 chin spoiler, and GT-500 rear spoiler.

Thanks,

DD bullits that wont paste a pic but you all know what they look like.

Thanks,

I really like the Pentars myself and came damn near close to buying them.

I like them too but the wife hates black wheels and I cant decide if they will look good with silver or not.

And I know who cares what the wife thinks but I dont need to hear crap for the next 10 years about how she hates the wheels.

The only problem with the ultralights or silver pentars is I dont know if there is enough contrast or not.

Here is a pic of a members car with the silver pentars (hope he doesnt mind), to me it is too subtle.

I'd go with 18" black 5-spoke saleen wheels, made for the previous model stang. They look great on our cars...especially a silver or gray one.

BUT....as for your choices, I like the pentars the best.

I like the CTR's but wish they didnt have a machined lip. Well I promised the wife no mods for a year after the supercharger but this is my last big dilema.

Thanks for the input

What about the Chrome Ultralights?

Thought about it but I am not a big fan of chrome. If they made them in Anthracite it would be no question. I have thought about getting them powder coated but I will be on a budget. I might have to see what it would run me these days for 4 wheels.

My only other thought is to keep the stockers and have weldcraft widen my rears to 17x9.5 or 17x10's. Then I would have a really good sleeper look.

Wheels are so hard to choose. At the moment I guess I am leaning toward the 18" bullets.


If I could get a pic of the ultralights and really loved them I might save up some extra cash for the powdercoating. At least I would be the only one with that set up.

It's probably hard to find pictures because they were on back order for over 6 months. I just got mine in I'll post some pics when I get them put on.
