There's a link to some better pictures of the wheels on the mustang. That is not my car, but those are the same wheels. It sure makes me wish I had lowered my car while I had it.

yes they are....there seems to be interest in them, however nobody has raised the bid of $650 yet. with the interest in them, I'd hate to see them go for $650, but they will if nobody else bids.

What scares me is the vibration. Have you had a tire and wheel shop check them out for roundness and balance? Is a wheel bent?

Are they the exact same? The URL mustang looks like they are polished or chrome? Are yours polished, chrome, or grey paint?

Mine have the polished lip with a regular aluminum look spokes. I guess the link is perhaps a fully chromed wheel.

I did have a wheel shop balance them and they assured me that they're not bent and that they are balanced. I've heard the hub-centric rings, with any aftermarket wheel, can help this. The worst case scenario is having to replace the front tires, however I'd probably bring them to a better shop that specialized with bigger wheels as these guys acted like they had never seen a set of 20's before.

I also found out, the hard way, that there is no way to air these tires up without some valve extensions (which you remove after checking pressures) so I will include those to the winner. They all hold air just fine, no leaks.
