Either on black bullitt's or black fr500's. Not sure yet. How would you guys go?

I've posted these photos a few times. Figured people might be tired of them.

Eibach pro spring kit, (loads of other goodies) 255/35/20 front 285/30/20 rear. Our Black Mustang is stock in these pictures. I personaly like the improved stance and the handling of the yellow Mustang

some more
We have ordered the same tires and wheels for the Black Mustang. Most of the suspension parts are in the garage waiting to be installed on the Black car also. I believe we will be going with a dark theme with the Black car, removing the Mustang stripe on the doors and darkening lights with either tint or covers. I really don't care of all the red inside, so that'll have to be addressed too.

Nice pics. The background looks real peaceful. Looks like a great place to cruise the motorcycle.

As for RTC, I am partial to the FR500 wheels. That is what I am going to get, but the Anthracite color. I have the same color car as yourself. The balck would be my second choice. As well as the bullets. But definatley the fr500's are my top choice.
