Default HELP PICKING WHEELS

So my car is black with red stripes. Look at other thread. Going to be pairing wheels with a new body kit. Which wheels do you think would look the best? I've narrowed it down to these? Any suggestions?

I saw matte charcoal RTR's in person on a black 2013 RTR. I wasn't a fan. In my opinion, the super dark wheels on dark colored cars trend is fading fast. I say go with something lighter. A light grey, silver, or if you are bold enough bronze.

The Charcoal AMR wheels look really good on all Mustangs, especially 2011+! We run this set up on our 2012 GT (Project Black Out) and I think it looks killer.

I have a 2011 Black GT myself and I'm going with this same set up! If you narrowed it down to this style wheel, I'd say go for it. Please let me know if you have any questions or need some assistance in the near future!

I personally think adding silver or bronze wheels to a car that is black (with red stripes, brake calipers, and dash accessories) or too many colors mixing. At least flat black or (charcoal) is inline with only having black and red imho. idk. but that's what I'm asking for opinions. fire away with thoughts?

Personally i say stay away from the mesh wheels. I went with forgestar F14 and I even did an abnormal color. Turns out changing the color of a popular style wheel doesnt make it any better (and you have to wait for ever to get them). I would go with a 5,6 or 7 spoke wheel. Again just personal taste.

As for the choice on 20's perfect!!! 19's look too small(also a mistake i made shoulda done 20)

At a recent Show I saw a car like yours with 20" AMerican Racing Torq Thrust Chrome wheels with Red colored brake parts & it was a knockout !
I told the guy, if I had a vote, it'd be for his car....

I'm leaning towards the 19" Chrome Bullitt from American Muscle..
