sharp car!
I prefer the 5 spokes too- funny how the 10 spokes are the more expensive 'premium' wheel...to me the best all around looking wheel for a mustang is the old torq-thrust-D...now the newer rendition is commonly called 'Bullitt', probably because American Racing still makes the old torq-thrust-d...
To me the premium 10 spokes are too flat and resemble a hubcap contour- they still look good, but arent for me.
When I ordered my car my biggest worry was getting the wrong(10 spoke) wheels. to each his own, but I love those 5 spokes(just kinda wish the face/outboard rim flange was a tad deeper...). my biggest worry now is getting my car- looking kinda like 05 all over again.

The 10 spokes were ok, but I liked the way the 5 spokes looked.
Unfortunately, when I took over the order, the 10 spokes were already on the order list and I was not able to change it.
Oh well! I didn't mind paying the extra cost of getting the silver Bullitts.
It definitely makes the car look a lot sharper.

Wow, what a difference a set of wheels make! I canceled my order with American Eagle on my 20" Black Torque Thrusts. They had me pretty "torqued".(Long story, American Eagle has no idea what customer service is). I'm kinda glad I didn't get them because I've been worrying about ride/traction problems that were sure to follow. I like the "bullits" and I think I will order the 18"x9" black ones. Anyways, great choice!

I think the black ones would look good in combination with the black racing stripes.
You can't go wrong with that combination.
Post some pictures as soon as you get them installed.
Thanks again everybody!
