Mach 1 Wheels

Ok, I searched and I can't find the pictures I'm looking for. Who has the Mach 1 wheels on the 05+? Also, how big are the wheels? Do you have to do anything special to get them to work with the 05+?

If you've got pics I'd love to see them. I'm a few months away from ordering finally and I'm going back and forth between the Mach 1 wheels and the 18" upgraded bullitt wheels.

Thanks.

Heres the best I found. The only others that compare would be Cervini but they are WAY more expensive and after seeing them in person last Sunday (the car that beat me out of first place) had a true B2 kit installed. Here is the best option I found after looking for a couple of months:

They also have brushed but I perfer chrome myself...

I went with Deep Dish bullitts myself since I could not find 18" Mach wheels...

We have 18"x9" Mach 1 replicas made with the correct offset for S197's. They're made by AFS Wheels and can be found on eBay. They have a website, but for some reason the Mach 1's aren't on there. If you don't see what you want (size, color, wheels/tires or wheels only, etc...) email them. They'll get them for you.

Steve is right. I stand corrected. AFS does have the 18" wheels but I like the deep dish style more. I contacted them and asked if they had plans to design (or get access to) deep dish rims like American Muscle's 17's but the answer was no. I was looking for the deep dish look, settled on the Bullitts, and am very happy with my choice.

BTW Steve...those wheels look BOSS on your ride...great looking car man...

Thanks guys. I sent CHDS PNY a PM about his car. I seem to remember a black one with the Mach 1 wheels on it as well. Any idea whose that may be?

When I finally get mine it's going to be Alloy Grey so I'm thinking that either the Bullitts or the Mach 1's will look good.

Thanks.

I have FRPP Mach 1 chrome wheels on my car. They are 17x8 and the back spacing is not the same as 05+ stock but they fit with no problems.

My avatar has the AFS chrome Mach I (18x9) wheels. I know when I got them about a year ago they also had the machined/black ones also.

Your Car looks great Chad!

I almost opted for the Mach 1's myself, but went for the Discount Tire 68's instead. Been happy with them so far.

Thanks!

Discount Tire offered me $100 per for the stock 17 inch bullet wheels/tires. I thought that was a pretty good deal!
