Wow buddy, those are gorgeous.

The chrome is flashy (which on a red sports car I like) and they have a nice curve to them but still kind of a technical, racy, mechanical look.

Very well chosen. I'd say they fit the car perfectly.

And keep droppin' pics of that thing here! Mustang or not, that's still a fun car to look at.

Thanks for all the good comments I really thought the wheels looked great too. I think I am going to lower it about an inch when I get time or have it tuned someday.

I knew I would get some critism that it's not a Mustang but I have been here for a while in fact every day since I have joined and like to hear your guys opinions. Just thought some of you guys would like to see what I have been up to and look at another piece of awesome automobile awesomeness. Again thanks for all ur opinions and keep em comin haha.

I actually joined in 2006 but I dunno why it says 07....o well.

i personally like them and the contrast that they bring to the smooth body if you were to have flush wheels i think it would look a bit too femnine in my opinion anyways

^ I agree and if I didn't have any with a lip then I wouldn't be able to put 305s on it for the tires. I think the biggest is 285 when it is flush not sure tho.

I would have went with gunmetal or black.. but that's just me.

In all honesty..I probably would not have noticed the change. Most chrome wheels look the same to me.. and tend to distract from the car. The vett does not need to have flash.. it's the whole package. That's why I think that "understated" black or gunmetal would look better.. they would make a mean looking car meaner.. chrome wheels just remind me a Florida and Miami Vice.

The quad exhaust is sick though..

Yeah I have been tossing around the idea of making them black with a victory red lip but I am not sure yet. Kinda pricey to do that too.
