I voted black before I saw the wheels you were looking at. Black usually looks good on any color car in my opinion with the right style for the car, but those gunmetal colored rims are sweet! That would be my pick for those wheels. Its all up to you though man so good luck.

That's actually KevinM's ride. I've got the same wheels sitting in boxes in the garage for my own white 89T.

I haven't yet decided if they will stick around though. The rims are for sale in the for sale section.

Let us know what you get and what size tires they fit good with.

Rims are brand new still in the original boxes. Comes with the centercaps and PIAA valve stems with caps.

Should be able to easily get a 255/35/18 on the back and your speedo will only be off by 0.7% (when speedo reads 60mph you will actually be rolling at 60.4mph).

Fronts would run a 235/35/18 or 235/40/18 if you want to raise the nose up just a half inch - I was planning on running the 40s as my nose sits really low - especially with the front lip.

You will need to supply your own hub-centric rings, tuner lugs, and rubbers.

Looked up the rim weight. I beleive they are 28 pounds each according to some mustang forum. So not too light, but not extremly heavy either for 10*18" wheels.

Do you think 285's would fit on the back? Would like to see if Nitto555 DR's in that size would fit.

rears are 26 and fronts are 25, so close, stock sawblades are what 23, 24lbs? so not that much of a difference.
