Default Need help deciding which rims to get

Ok so I am having a hard time deciding which set of rims would look better on my car. Let me know if you like the chrome saleens or black saleens.





Props to Xeno for being able to give me a good idea of what each rims would look like on my car.

i love the way chrome sits on the red mustangs. black wheels can look kinda cheap, the ricers removing their hub caps to black out the wheels ruined the look for me. the black bullits with chrome lip or black fr500s with chrome lip would look good but ive never been a fan of just strait black rims on certain color cars. i think a white car, yellow car, or maybe black can pull it off but personally i dont think it sits good on your color.

if you add more blacked out parts to your ride then the black, but as is the chrome looks better IMO.

you should consider getting new wheels altogether - not just the rims

I vote for neither. I think that red looks the best with a silver/machined wheel. Check out boduke's ride.
