RE: Which wheel color is better?
I don't like any of them [sm=joke.gif]. I'm a fan of the bullitt wheels and plan on buying a set of 17x9's up front and 17x10.5s out back (as soon as they are off back order [sm=headbang.gif]). Color of choice: Black. They look great with a set of 315/35/17 tires out back. However, if I were you and had my heart set on those rims I would select #2. They would look great on your car. Good luck!

just a suggestion, its your car.
but id go with black. and then have dark tint. and tint the taillights and stuff. could look pretty sleek if you ask me.

RE: Which wheel color is better?
I'm shying away from bullitts because it seems everyone on the forums has/wants them. Sorry, no offense. And yes, I'm putting DDs on the rear.
Yeah, the stock tires suck for traction, but she sees tread and thinks thats what matters. Hell, at 38, I usually agree with her. Them puppies are pricey.
Ramrod, I'm tenting the windows later this spring, but I'm leaving the lights alone.
DR8907, I'm looking at mustangtuning.com for wheels.
And now, the bad news:
First, upper and lower control arms are a bitch to install, even when you have every tool you need. Still, it was worth it and my thanks to Mitch (code3gt) for the recommendation.
Second, my DZSport springs are pissing me off. I installed them in August and the drop was not the 2 inches advertised, but closer to NOTHING! So, I added new shocks/struts today and still almost nothing. Everything is installed correctly and it just refuses to drop. The only thing I can think of is that the springs are not made right. They fit, but they make the car look almost stock.
So, Eibachs are the most popular, so which one will give me 1.5 inches of drop? Pros or sports?
Thanks to all.
