Chk out this string... however those are Rouch versions, but the colors are cool. I went to Texas Tech, red and black too... I like the middle one.

thanks Kevin. the white with the red and black (USC colors!) looks really good and the more I see it the more I really like just one large stripe down the middle. I'm considering WB, LL, redfire, and black but then I go back and forth about ICAP and spoiler or no spoiler, etc. Lucky I dont have to decide right now! Also, your car looks awesome. to be honest I dont generally like MG but yours looks really good!

yeah i like the bullets wheels a lot better but not with mineral grey. I am just making that statement. I went over every combination possible before i ordered my car. here's the details of my decision: 1. GT 2. Manual 3. Pick best color for the shape and design of the car and a color that made the car masculine not girly (took forever to decide) - Mineral Grey 4. which wheels look the best with the color ( love, love, love the bullets wheels but they dont contrast with the color well....the body and the wheels are the same color...not a good thing) the bright machined wheels contrast better and they fit the overall design of the car better 5. Spoiler delete option ( the wing is pointless and serves no purpose, actually creates drag and disturbs airflow....fastbacks look better without them...65-68) 6. Must have every available option (takes the car to another level and helps resale but i doubt i will sell it.....ever) 7. Dark charchoal interior ( why dark charchoal? have you seen the tan and grey interiour? I rest my case.....red was cool but it would get old and wear badly and i'm also sticking with the masculine, aggressive feeling for the car) thanks for reading my rambling. i have been reading and wanting this car for over 2 years now and never thought i would own one so soon. not bad for a 19 year old huh? lol and yes i pay for it myself

My vote, bullits even if they don't stand-out in their stock color... chrome 'em or paint 'em Black
Now they make a statement

Kevinrox i agree that the bullet wheels look much better chromed or painted black. The wheels make a much better statement that way but how they look with the car they are attached to the car is more important. Your black wheels look sweet but not with a dark color like mineral grey. Now if they were chromed they would look sweet on the mineral grey because they would have contrasted. Once again i say that i love the bullet wheels and they are the best choice on a little colored car. And as much as l love the bullet wheels they do not match the rest of the design of the car (05 mustang). the rest of the car has been rethought so should the wheels. However the bullet wheels would love better if they were 18x9in, had a deep dish with a big lip, and the car was lowered 1.5in but in stock form they fall short. I know i am exquisite feeling release of liquid waste product a lot of people off with my comments but that is not my intention. It is to merely explain my views of why i didnt get the bullet wheels with a mineral grey car and wouldn't have with any dark colored car.

Clint,
I would have probably gone with chrome, but for 400 dollars I painted the stock wheels until the rubber wears off. Then I'll re-think. I like the retro bullit look, but might want chrome or 18's. Now if you go to this post,
http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index.php?sh...ndpost&p=329959
I think these wheels are hot, but 20's is something I might not want.
Personally I the wheels you are looking look similar to the Ford Racing wheels... chk those out. but the wheels above look a little too ricy for my taste.
scroll through this string, maybe you'll see something else you like
http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index.php?showtopic=13170
post your wheel info in the wheels string... you'll probably get the feedback your looking for on types, styles etc.

i canceled my order on the bbs clone wheels. I have always loved the 18in mustang ford racing wheels that where on the fr500 but i was told that they were $500 each. well i was on ford racing.com last night and found that they are half that. $250 for silver with a polished lip, exactly what i wanted. 18x9 all the way around.
