Default Keep on rollin baby!

So guys im stuck on trying to decide which wheels to get. I already have a few choices in mind but let me know what you guys think. Im already gonna do 18x9's up front and 18x10's out back no matter which ones i go with but just trying to decide on some styles. Im pretty stuck on the hypercoated style. Im leaning towards the saleens but thats just me. Also if this helps any im planning on gettina Cobra R hood here in the near future. . .

FR500's:


Saleen's:


Bullet's:


Cobra R's:

Not a huge fan of any of those. I say, be original, check out what else is out there...

If your set on those, go with the Saleen's in 18's

if you stick with the ones you listed I like the fr500's but I personally have the steeda ultralight II's. Not too many people have them and I think they look awesome... steeda also has them onsale right now... but they only come in 17x9 or 18x9.5. I have the 18x9.5.

If you are stuck on anthracite, then definately only choose between the FR500's and the S-styles, i just dont think the bullits/cobra r's look good in anything but chrome, I like the FR500's, but the saleens look bad *** too.

And you definately need a hood

I like the Saleens. I'd say go with 17", you'll save a ton on tires...

Eh you know how it is. Just planning ahead. My next mods are probably gonna be getting a new intake manifold (the old one is on its way out so im gonna get the typhoon), race seats, and finish up the suspension. Then ill send off the heads to be ported and then i get to save off for a new 5.1 stroker bottom end
