Go with 18" DDR Chrome Bullits. I know a lot of people will tell you that they seem overdone, but on an AB Mach, I'm not sure if there's a sweeter look. Retro, kinda "Cragar mag" looking, but with 18's and fat meats, REALLY modern and aggressive

I think any of the deep dish ones will be good. I have black DD FR500's on mine.

I would either go for the chrome Bullitts or the black DD FR500's. Like Groundpounder said, the chrome bullitts give it a retro look. Black bullitts are too played out IMO.

I will check my photobucket account in a second. I am on a ski vacation, so I don't have all my pics on my laptop. I will be back with some pics in a couple minutes hopefully.

Someone else made my sig. I could make a sig for you, but it wouldn't be as good. Post some pics of your car in the Chop Shop section of the forums. Someone there will make a sig for you.
