So far, my favorite is still the 010 GT500 rims for that year car.
Because of that new body style, I can see more non-5spoke designs looking good on that car.
A less retro scheme will work well too.
Time will tell...

I would like to drop it, I just need to learn a bit more about it. I worry about wheel rub, even though the tire diameter is the exact same as stock. Also worry about getting over the sidewalk lip to get in my garage. I agree it would look much nice, and probably handle even better.

Hehe, yeah the plan was to sell them, I just have not got around to putting them up on eBay or craiglist yet. Send me a pm if your really interested. They have 760.2 miles (I took a pict at the tire dealer) and no TPM's.

How wide are the stock tires front and rear? Do you think that 9" wide tires would fit in front? And do the 10" rears let you put more power down on a launch? Just wondering and planning for when I finally get the scratch for a 5.0

+1 on the GT500 wheels. If Ford ends up offering them aftermarket, thats whats going on mine.
Anybody know if Ford plans on releasing these wheels?

They're the schit.
FRPP prolly have them with different offset and so on.
AMuscle, OE and other will have something available within a couple of years.
It won't be right away though.
For now, the CS40 series rim would look awesome on the 010, especially on the grabber blue.
