No the one from them was painted black. The rest straight from Ford were not primed or anything. You can see the glossy one is from California Mustang.

That is pretty funny. They were the only place online that had them listed for sale but apparently they never actually had them, haha!

That's crazy man. I wonder if ours were the same "set" and they messed up both orders. I did that years ago. Idk how long but I'd guess 3-4 years....

I still have one of the emails from the order. This was back in February of '07.

I had those wheels for my 07 Alloy Grey....they looked fantastic on mine and will look the same on yours. I used them for track rims...but have since sold them and replaced them with lightweight rims for track use.

Thanks. Have any pics of them while they were on the car?

What wheels did you go with now for the track?

Not many actually...because they only went on at track time....but I found a couple. One from High Plains Raceway in Colorado 2010 and one from Autobahn track at Joliet Ill. last fall. The new track rims are D-Force from Vorshlag.

Thanks for finding some shots. They look good on there.

Looks like your new wheels offer a nice cost/strength/weight ratio Name: icon14.gif

Yes...they are really nice, quality, lightweight rims. The best part is the price! I have wanted lightweight track rims for a long time, but the high price kept me from getting them. These are much more affordable and I'm a happy camper now!

Thanks! It's been a great car since the day I brought it home. I've put a ton of Roush parts on/into it...as well as other aftermarket parts. It has slowly become the car I envisioned when I ordered it.
