ok guys (and girls).. I am having a tough time deciding on what rims to get...

I have a white GT and am going to go with 19" rims. 19x9 up front and 19x10 in the rear... I have already decided on the color.. silver with polished lip, but am having a tough time with the rim style...

which rim do you think would look best? I am leaning toward the 10 spoke... Thanks for voting.


5 SPOKE AERO RIM...





-OR-


10 SPOKE IMOLA RIM (similar to saleen but way better IMO)







Also, if anyone can photoshop these on a car that would be great...

thanks,

IMO neither belong on a Mustang but i guess the 5 spoke is the best of the worst.

 

10 spoke!

 

Either wheel looks nice, I'd say the 10 spoke just to not look so '5 spoke' common. Don't you think 19s are a little
odd-ball? I realize they look sweeter than 18s and not as overwhelming as 20s, but the tires are limited in choices(brands)
and cost as much(if not more) than 20s. I just bought some A R Shelby Razor wheels (20X9) and the tirerack.com
has tons of choices in the 20" sizes. I ordered some Kumhos 255/35YR20 for $111.00 each, they're on back order,
but I should get them by mid Sept. BTW the 10 spokes(now that I've looked at them for a while) are more S197, the
5 spokes look more New Edge Mustang to me.
Mis Dos Centavos(that's my two cents for non-Spanish speakers[sm=usa.gif])[sm=bling.gif]

 

Both sets are very nice.

 

I like the 10 spoke. It looks a little different than every other stang but still is in the same family of spoke ya know? Either way you cant go wrong. I changed out my wheels as well. Wanted to stay in the spoke family but just stray a little from everyone else. I like it because it sets you apart just ever so slightly. People will wonder what little things make your car that much hotter than the norm.


As I always say to everyone who asks similar feedback on mods. You are the only one who has to pay for them and live with them so do what ever it is that makes you happy! I know it feels good to have someone say "nice this or that", believe me I know; but just do what you like and hope they catch on. Some people are ahead of the pack!
Go 4 it!

 

I like the 19's becuase they dont look as overwhelming as 20's and I can run a larger sidewall. These rims are custom made by iforged to any specification so it will cost me slightly less than 20's. The problem that I forsee is tire availabilty, as you noted. I am going to run Falken tires on the car (they are one of the only brands that have a lot of options when it comes to 19") to keep the diameter of the rim close to stock specs... 255 up front and 275 in the rear.

love the look of the Razors...

 

10 FTW!!!!

 

here is a pic of a black GT with 5 spoke aero. These are 20" Aeros





and they look sick on an earlier stang... These are 18" Aeros
