Different strokes..........I remember when 16s were a plus two sizing and 17s were HUGE. I refuse to go larger than an 18 inch rim (and expensive tire.)

Shane, I discussed silver wheels with Chris Young a quite a while back and he supposedly offered this up at one of your meetings at the same time the black color was suggested. He told me you guys were supposed to be getting them done but nothing ever materialized. Silver, especially hypersilver, would be a very popular color option for these wheels.
Also, I'll look into the painted mirror covers too jsimmons. I'll especially take a look at the lighter colored ones. Painting the inside satin black shouldn't be an issue, but I'll have to look into it first.
Keep the suggestions coming guys!

Bring the thread back to life.
Did they come out with Silver ones?
I am looking for the Boss 302 LS Wheels.
Who makes the AMR wheels.
Can the center cap be changed to a Ford One?

They're nice looking wheels in any finish and a pretty good deal.
My quandary was that the offset on the original RTR wheels makes the style look SO much better.
I finally ordered I my own RTRs and they'll be here today. Worth the extra cash, IMO.

Agreed. The similar AMRs aren't bad, but The offset is what does it for me. I love my RTR's

They're not the best, but I've got a couple pics of mine. I don't know if I'm explaining this correctly, but basically the RTR's have a deeper curve in/concave profile, and slightly larger offset.. They line up with the edges of the fenders better and have a more aggressive look, imo. I find it much harder to tell in a picture than in person.
You can get the AMRs and RTRs at American Muscle. They have a bunch of customer pics of each.

Your Car looks Awesome. Man I see what you mean. Do they rub at all? I don't know much about Off Set do they have more or less? How did you get Caliper paint to mach your car color?

No they don't rub at all, I also have a 1" drop w/ ford racing suspension components. My calipers came painted, but you can buy the paint online I believe.
This explains offset a bit better than I could here:

American muscle doesn't have offset info, but I believe the RTRs have more negative offset, so the hub sits farther in from the outer wall.

I bought the package in 18x8, shipping/mounting/balancing/fitment/appearance was excellent. This is my fourth set of Pirelli P Zero Neros on a third Mustang if that tells you any thing. Any other question on tires - search Tire Rack's database - lots of good info there.

Holy crap... my set of charcoal RTR wheels arrived yesterday and I'm blown away at how great they look siting in the box.
OEM TMPS semsors ($58 shipped for the set from Amazon vendor) will be here Monday and I'll get the tires put on a day or two later...leaning towards 285/35/19 Potenza RE-11s.
BTW, they offer them in both narrower and wider sizes than the original 9.5" wide untis but the offssets appear to be a bit more conventional. I almost went 10" wide but they would likely be less concave/more tucked under than the originals.

I really want that side stripe. Tried to do it with plastidip but couldn't get the width how I wanted it
