Strong, Light, Inexpensive Wheels - 18x10 D-Force
I told ya'll in another thread that I would post when the 18x10 D-Force Wheels were available. Well, they are on a container ship and pre-sales have begun. Available in Silver and Flat Black for the first run.
I've pre-ordered a set of flat black for my Competition Orange Boss. I've been doing business with Vorshlag since day 1, and as a caveat, they did sponsor me when I ran my M3. Great company to deal with and about as thorough at testing each and every product they offer as you can get.
I ran their 17x9 D-Force wheels on my M3 for over 5 years. This was street and track driving (NASA TTC). Never had any issues in the 12 sets of tires I ran them through. Ran curbing, potholes on the street. Very strong wheels. These are run throughout BMWCCA racing as well. Strong, light and inexpensive. The current owner of my car is STILL running my original set of D-Force wheels and has picked up a second set for their TTA car
More information on the wheels is available here: Vorshlag D-Force Wheels

I promise I'll post up my super-secret-anti-spin-off-the-planet square setup if it makes you guys rest any easier (hint, it cost $189 and took about 1 hour to install and came from a guy named Sam Strano).

saw those wheels on the vorshlag red 5.0 at the eagles canyon toy run Saturday. they look really good and have a ton of clearance, the car was using the silver ones, but they come in flat black. the guy told me $300 per wheel at the track.

Was probably Terry (owner). His wife Amy was driving the Mustang and then they started sharing it when the BMW ruptured the coolant reservoir.

Definitely bookmarking the Vorshlag website to re-visit these rims in the spring. Could really use some strong, lightweight, good looking rims for the track!!

We don't have pics of flat black on a white Mustang just yet, but, lemmie see...
That's an 18x10" in flat black on a silver E46 M3. Here's my 2011 GT with the 18x10's in silver (275/40/18 Bridgestone RE-11) at the ECR Toy Run track event that Shane mentioned (nice meeting you there, BTW):
Got some good pics of Shane's beautiful Boss302 there as well. Here he is after putting away a Nissan GTR:
One more showing the new 18x10s:
Thanks,

I swiped some from your page, nice meeting you too. Was a fun day, thanks for talking about the tires even though i didn't want to buy your wheels! You guys were hauling **** and scaring 911 drivers with sideways antics. What you guys really need to sell some wheels is a comp orange boss model on a set of matte black, I happen to know a guy that is local! That car sounds fantastic btw.

This might interest some while thinking about tire/wheel sizes on our Mustangs.
Jamal's engineering comments on the tire sizing his team considered while developing the recent 650 horsepower GT500.
I am certain Dave Perciak's engineers did similar studies with our cars.
