Just my 2 cents, but I would be careful with replica chrome rims. I have seen quite a few out there with peeling chrome after 1 or 2 years. I don't know who's good and who's bad, but I'm going with polished for that reason alone.

ebay is a great start... I was going to get mine from there but MustangTuning was doing free shipping at the time, so although they charged more per wheel, it came out to cost less in the end because of the free shipping to just get it from MustangTuning... LOOK AROUND FOR 17'S though! You'll be SO much happer you did when you buy tires for the wheels... the 1" difference is not worth it.

When it comes to the saleens, I believe the 1" difference make them look MUCH better.
And americanmsucle (mustangtuning) always has free shipping..

Here's a link to the one's I got off ebay:

Great price. Put them on my black 99 GT. They look absolutely amazing and are of great quality. This guy sells a boatload of wheels on ebay and has a good rating and the shipping was quick.
