2018 Appearance Upgrades - Seeking Advice

Hey guys....

I bought a 2008 ford mustang gt - auto 4.6l last spring. After getting it I went ahead with adding a JLT CAI, CMDP, UDP, Brenspeed SCT X4 Tuner Package and a TCI StreetFighter Ratchetshifter. The car already had Flowmaster Outlaw Series Axle-Back Exhaust.

The OEM wheels had really bad corrosion so I got a new set plus tires.

All white.. I did black out the back deck with carbon fiber skin and also Raxiom Gen5 Tail Lights.

The attached picture is of the car. It was former salvage with hail damage but the major hail issues were repaired.. not sure how well but I think it still looks ok.. you can see some hail marks on the back by the window/deck if you look really hard.

Anyway... this year I want to lower it and change out the wheels/tires.... so for wheels I am thinking of the following but trying to get input from other pony owners... I don't have any car friends and really would like some advice... not sure what looks good with white.

I don't race it ... basically only fair weather driving and that's about it.

Any thoughts on these rims ?

I also found these on Ebay - SVE Drift - https://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-15-MUS...ZaTPt8&vxp=mtr

Thanks for any advice you can give.....

I think either would look great with white. Not being one that likes black I went with the Niche Targa Gun metal on my Tungsten Gray car, and am quite happy with the looks. The Niche Targa wheel look a lot like the SVE wheels.

However the major difference between the Niche Targa and SVE wheels pictured here is the Targa's are 10 spoke wheels, the SVE wheel is 14 spoke.

Anyhow just saying lol.

Like wanted says, I think either would look great. SVE is sold by Late Model Restoration, you could check out some of their selection on their website.
