Any pics of '05-'09s with 2010 GT500 wheels?

I'm curious if anyone has any pics of a 2005-2009 Mustang with 2010 Shelby GT500 wheels on it. I don't care if it's the 18's or 19's, or if it's the replicas American Muscle sells. I'm just curious how they'd look. Those might just be my favorite Mustang wheel since the Magnum 500's!

I've been waiting for someone to pop up with pictures of them because I love the look of those wheels. Check AmericanMuscle's customer pics for them. I know one s197 is on there with them.

Yeah, I've seen the few pics American Muscle has. I was hoping some other forum members (here or otherwise) had some pics too. I would have thought they would be more popular. I'll check out S197 and MustangForums to see what you guys are talking about. Thanks!

Here is a photoshop by BA Mustang of the 19" 2010 GT500 wheels on our 2007 Alloy GT. Love the wheel and was hoping that FRPP would offer them at a reasonable price, but so far no luck.
I think the 19" wheels are forged while the 18"s were cast.

I agree, it was an outstanding job by BA Mustang.

Oh my goodness. I've never liked these wheels until I saw this picture. Those are 19"s in that photoshop pic then for sure? I have good tread on my 18's, but my oh my, that right there is perfect. So that is what, a satin finish? American Muscle just has 18's in either black, chrome, or black machined. I've never seen a picture like that. Did I say this is perfect?

Something's not right here, I realize it's a photoshop, but look at the picture attached of supposedly the same wheel. The one I attached, ugly (IMHO). The one in your photoshop, dead sexy.

I have a friend with a 2010 GT500 and I do not like his wheels. Can you provide more info on where the wheels for this photoshop came from? Perhaps it's photoshop magic, just wanting to see if there's more info anywhere before I go hunting for a potential $2500 expenditure.

I don't know where the wheels came from that were used in the photoshop. I have seen both the 19" forged wheel used on the 2010 Coupe and the 18" cast wheel that was used on the 2010 GT500 Convertible.
IMHO The wheels in the photoshop look identical to the 19" forged rims that I have seen.
Again IMHO the cast 18" GT500 convertible rim does have a different look. There is also a large price difference between the two.
I think both the Coupe and Convertible 2011 GT500's use the 19" forged wheel.
I have photo's of both wheels from Mustang Alley at this years Woodward Dream Cruise and I will try to post them later this evening.

Here are some photos of the 18" Convertible GT500 rims and also the 19" Coupe GT500 rims.
Now that I see the coupe photo's I think that is the photo BA Mustang used to photoshop the rims.
When I priced the forged 19" GT500 rim last fall they were $1250 per wheel.
The cast 18" GT500 rim was $550 per wheel.
I was hoping that FRPP would offer the forged wheel at a reasonable price.
