Anybody have the 18x8.5 Ford Black "Flangless" Bullits? I believe that they are #14 in the Mustang Accessory Catalog (the little one that the dealership gives out).

Second, one_focused_svt looks like he spends some time keeping his ride clean, and that makes a big difference in how well polished wheels look.

p.s. -A third thing: (back to contrast) one_focused_svt is running polished rims on a BLACK car, so independent of any camera-effect you're eyes are going to register much more "punch" from that natural degree of contrast...and the result is simply stunning! That car looks great.
DING!!! Nail on the head, I was it at least twice a day when I drive it, and polish the rims twice a week, and of course since its a black car it makes a world of differance!

elbow grease, lol. just good old window and mirror cleaner. its just that I clean them almost twice a day! What I meant by polish is when I use the window cleaner, usually I just use a dry microfiber rag, since they don't have time to collect dirt they clean right up!
