2006 Mustang "Standard"
#22
I saw one of these on a lot yesterday and they are most definitely hub caps. I bent over to figure out what was going on because they looked like real aluminum wheels even up close (at least until you drive away and hit your first piece of road debris). If you feel behind each "blade" of the cover you'll find that there's a steel "blade" that matches it. So basically they are 5-spoke steel wheels underneath. Like someone said above, it's a clever design and very deceiving until you touch it.

They are in fact hubcaps. The "standard" Mustang is aimed at those who want one but don't want to spend the money for a deluxe or premium model. In fact most people who come in buying a Mustang simply want the look of the body. I've only had one customer who optioned for different wheels.

They are hubcaps.
I finally got a copy of the 2006 Brochure this morning from my dealer! Since there seems to be a lot of wheel questions on the board, I decided to scan the wheels from the brochure and attach them to this post.......enjoy

On the Standard package, do you lose more than the alloy rims compared to the Deluxe (i.e. power windows, power door locks, etc.)?

Almost every one I've seen is like this one, even the ones I saw at the dealer yesterday when I went to get my free tank of gas they owed me.
Oh, and not to stray off topic, they don't appeal to me but would be great if you're looking to buy something basic and equip with take-offs or the like.
