Default Perspective new wheels, what do you think?

Here is my buddies '95 GT with a 351 crate motor in it. This thing is totally redone from front to rear, everything is new underneith from front to back. The only thing not touched is the tranny other then the clutch. He took this pic from Fords at Carlilse this past year. You can't see it in the pics, but it has metallic ghost flames in the paint.



My buddy is letting me barrow his wheels next weekend to try on my car.

I can't remember the name of the wheels, but they are 18 X 9 front and back with big and little tires front to back.

I'm still undecided, I was going to go with 17 9/10.5 DD Bullets from OE wheels, but these are different and no one else has them.
I'm undecided on the DD look front and back.
What do you think???
Do you guy's like them or no?

Here is mine... This is a Photoshop pic of how I want it to look in the spring.



So far you guy's think they look good?
His car is more of a drag car and has no intentions now using to cruise in, the thing is too radical to go cruising, so he may be selling these to get some more drag type appropriot wheels.
He is letting me barrow them to see how they look to get more wheel options.

Thanks!!
He has got $30K into her.....

This the thing is a beast, he did all the work him self with the exception of the paint work. He still hasn't gotten it fully running right.

He wants to get it to NJ to the maker of his FI system so he can get on their dyno. They told him to bring it down and He has been talking with them on it to get it to run right, they just got to get the time together to do it.
He is about ready to just throw a carb on it and say screw it.

It would be a lot easier to make this decision if you waited to make the post until the weekend when you had pics of the wheels on your car

Yeah, I know.... [8D]
But I just wanna make sure these wheels are worth looking into looks wise before I do that, I had my heart set on those Bullets, but these may change that. I just wanted some others opinions before I wasted my time and his.
