Chrome ponies or no?
Well I bought these ponies for my car before I even owned my car... After I got it painted, the first thing I hear from everyone is "now you need rims"
great... well I really REALLY like the ponies on the mustang.. something nice and clean and stock about them.... So.. My option is to go to some chrome ponies.. what do you guys think? Going 5 Lug and an aftermarket rim isnt really an option... #1 I don't feel like doing it, and #2 I just bought brand new rubber for the ponies.
So heres the pic of the car (with some tireshine on for all you people who complained about my lack thereof in my previous new paint post)
So ... the question is... Chrome, or no chrome?

Those rims are cool you just need to lower the car. Some chrome ponies will look nice too. They sell them in 17 inch too. Heres' the link http://www.ponyr.com/ If you go after market I think personally some gun metal Cobra R's will look nice. Nice paint job by the way thats a nice 50.

Just spend that money that you were going to use for the chrome ponies for some lowering springs.

and what kind of paint is that? really nice bro. thats why you should keep it with the stock ponies, and a suspension kit and it would look really bad ***.

i love it too man!
well IMO, keep the stock rims you have, keep it clean and stock looking. Plus..those rims will add weight : ) not much, but im just trying to say that your **** is bad *** stock looking with that color. suspension kit will make it look a thousand times better. good luck with your choice bro
