Default Which Wheels for My '13

Hello Folk,

Long time Lurker. First Time Poster.

I think Ive narrowed my wheel choices down to either the Vossen CV3's or the Forgestar CF5's.

Im leaning towards the Vossen's but Im worried they may be getting a little too popular. There are already two other S197 mustangs in my area (so Ive heard) runnig those same wheels.

The Forgestars look good too and are quality wheels but dont really have as much "hey look at me" as the Vossen's.

What do you guys think? Opinions welcomed.

VOSSEN (F: 20x9 / R: 20x10.5)

I voted for the FORGSTAR but man that was a hard choice! I literally went back and forth with the mouse 3 times before hitting "vote".

Neither one unless you're also getting a big brake kit...

It's just way to open a wheel in either case for the stock stuff.

Both options are nice.

Forgestar. Better finish options and the ability to run a 19 front / 20 rear in deep concave. I think a brushed charcoal finish would look great on your car.

Vossen fronts are barely concave.

I personally think 20's on the front of a S197 look too big in relationship to the rears.

Look at the new Vossen CV5's, they're still 5 spoke like the cv3, but these are split spoke, I persoanlly like them better

I like the Vossens but the Forgstars look good too. I think either would look great.
