or the grey ones... but grey wouldn't look good with a black car.

So... what did those set you back? Did you buy them with new meat, or did the Roush already have 20's?

Grey wheels look fantastic on a black car. Those wheels are pretty cool. Can't wait for the pics.

Will those fit? Stock 05-07 Mustang tires are 27.2" in diamter. 255/40/20 are 28.0" and 285/35/20 are 27.85". Seems like you would have to drop 5 points for each tire on the aspect ratio.

So... let me ask you guys that already have Foose Nitrous wheels... the ads I've seen for these say they are 1 piece, but they look like a 2 piece. Wasn't sure if the bolts were functional or not. But on the other hand, the Foose Nitrous II are listed as a 2 piece but look like a 1 piece.
What's really going on?

The rims I believe are one piece. The chrome lips are applied to the rim( I am not sure exactly how though) after the rims are made. The rivets are chrome looking plastic that are applied with some sort of adhesive. I know this for sure because 3 of my rivets fell out and I had to order replacements from a local shop. Luckily they only cost $2.50 each, but I still wasn't very happy about it since the rims were only 6 months old when it happened. I used Super Glue to put them back on. Haven't had any other problems with them since. Even with this minor problem, I am still VERY happy with them. The only challenge I see is that when I need to put air in them, the valve stems are on the inside of the rim( the rotor side). Kind of an odd place for them and alittle hard to get to.
