Default Opinions on what wheels

Just wanted some other peoples opinions on what rims would go good with my car! I am thinking about the 19in black sve drift but I don't want to jump the gun, so any input on what might look sharp would be greatly appreciated!

SVE Drifts are pretty Sweet! I feel 19s are the perfect size rims for Stangs when your going with spoke style rims. Of course 19 tires are a bit expensive in general. Just be on the lookout for sales on them.

I'm saving up for Rims/tires right now. Going with RTRs or SVE Drifts. Good width rims.

Took me over a year to finally decide on what wheels I wanted. I ended up going with Carrol Shelby CS1's, Bit expensive but I think it was worth it, Only draw back is they are 20's I would have perfered 19's. Living in Michigan the roads are bad here. There are a ton of choices out there you just need to find what you like and pull the trigger

I have 19s that were an option from Ford. Check my garage to see them.
Good luck.

Everybody and their mother has SVE wheels, why not go with something more unique that looks good on the car? We're not just copying and pasting the same car over and over and over again, your car will never be noticed if you don't do something different. Here's a few examples of something different than the "norm"

Nobody achieved anything by just copying what the guy next to you does, do something different

I agree with this statement 100%, I'm sure cost plays a major factor in wheel decisions, I decided to go with Carrol Shelby CS1's. Coat was not a factor for me. No disrespect intended I realy don't like any of the wheels you provided photos of. Strickly a personal opinion.

I'd stay away from black wheels. I had them on my old mustang. Its hard too see them unless your right next to them. If you are set on the mesh style wheel, I'd go with charcoal AMR. Niche also makes some pretty sweet wheels in what they call black tint that looks almost like a titanium finish. Thats what I'llbe getting on my new stang . I'm leaning toward the Milan's or Verona's.

Personally I like the 5 spoke silver 18" wheels that are on the 2011-12 GT's. I just bought a used set for $300 for my 2012 V6. My tires still have tread life left on them so won't have them on till late summer. I suppose I'm kind of boring, liking the stock rims from a GT, but the price was right and I wanted original Ford wheels. I really don't like my stock V6 wheels. Thought about original 17" bullit wheels from the 2005-09 but people said they wouldn't clear the disc brakes.
