they dont make our bolt pattern in the 18's

lol dude i found that exact set of wheels last night, was all bummed that they weren't 18". I worry about the CS69 wheel si originaly posted, they look great in 20", but in the 18" i want to run I don't like them nearly as well.

Edit:

isn't that offset for the fornt wheels wrong for a stang? We need 30mm I dont htink the 20mm woudl do the trick.

i thnk it's between the ones above and these:

i'm kind of diggin the foose wheels, but i can't find them in 18 installed anyhwere to see them online. I've seen the in 20" installed somewhere and they looked good. sometimes 18" and 20" wheels look totally different on teh car though. I'm not a fan of the CC centercaps on those other wheels.

Some flat black wheel paint would fix that right up

yeah i would like to get a pony center cap on it, i wonder if the ones from the factory wheels would fit. Opinions on the wheels welcome, i'm torn right now. the price difference between the two sets isn't an issue. i just want what will look best and a quality wheel.

I think you should do the Black FR500's 18x10 all the way around

Those will be my next set one of these days

what is with the 18x10 all the way around..How is this going to help you..its just adding more rotating weight and having that wide up front really isnt going to do much of a benefit.

I also thought about the stealth black fr500s for mine. Canemustang has them on his and it looks really good. The tsw's are expensive but are a high quality wheel. Depends on what you are looking for really. The foose are nice but in my opinion they are way over priced just cause his name is on it.
