First off, i did not say they were bling, i said that if the 17-18" CHROME 2005 bullits (not the ones from years ago, sorry i didnt mention that part) and the 2006 fanblades were judged by people who actually know the real meaning the word is used for, they would consider the chrome bullits to be more bling.

And i also did not say that all things have to be chrome to be considered bling. I said rims on cars would have to be chrome to be even close to bling. Have u ever seen wheels that werent chrome that were bling?

 

Yeah - and thats what I said too.....
chrome 18" bullitt IS blingy - I've looked

 

I want some shiney chrome wheels that when looked at you'll need sunglasses, but I also want those rims to say PERFORMANCE, and make the car look like it's doing warp 9 when it's standing still. Those rims need to "fit" the '05 and compliment the automobile without that "got a new set of rims" look. I'm still narrowing an already short list of what might fit the bill. When I decide I'll post the pictures and if some people say its bling-bling then bling-bling it will be. heck, truth be told, no matter what color, rims, or stripes the 2005/6 Mustang is bling-bling all by itself.
Can I get an amen!

 

I like them, but I don't know why.

 

Well, I'll fess up and say that I thought they were blingish a year ago when all we saw were the chrome ones that were flying around in all the marketing materials.



The polished one's on the show car looked better.



In the end the way they did them with the painted centers turned out great. They really have to be seen in person to be appreciated, pictures just don't do it justice.

 

I think both the chrome fanblades and the ones they have for the 06 look great. And haveing wheels on ur car that may be considered blingy is not an insult. Its sopposed to be a good thing. And the rappers who created the word dont even use it anymore cuz of how everyone misunderstood it.

Its just the kind of "bling" your talking about. People shouldent think blingy things are ugly, Its depends on what your talking about. Their are rims that are ugly and their are rims that look good. Its called opinion. Some people think rims are bling (good) some people think its ugly. If you think bling is ugly then i guess every kind of jewelery you have is ugly.

Thats what some people are ignorant about. If you saw someone go up to a car and say how their wheels were blingy as an insult and hes wearing a fancy rolex watch, their insulting themselves.

 

The fanblades weren't exactly designed to improve performance but is certainly a concrete curb's favorite.

But I agree with my fellow members, they aren't bling-bling.


































They are ghetto-ghetto.

 

at least they are not 22" spinners

 

Great idea! Lets give Roush a call.

 

Fanblades are ghetto-ghetto?

Yo

DUDE

I mean DUUUUDE

 

After Seeing the GT 350 Resemblence I like them even More.

Ok, Ignorant, uninformed 40 year old plus guy here.
Is bling along the same lines as rice?
If so, they are not bling and certainly not ghetto.

 

 

In some way, yes. Rice is getting an import car and paying more money on the look then the actual performance of the car. And to people that like the old muscle car look, rice would look tacky to them. But its not the same as bling cuz ricers dont use expensive chrome rims, they put huge wings and underbody lights and stuff like that. That is not bling.

Bling for cars is kind of the same thing. If they paid a lot of money for the rims instead of the performance of the car. But again, the people who like the old muscle car look would think most chrome rims were ugly. But people who are not aware of the old muscle car look would think chrome rims would look blingy (good)

 

Funny you posted about this......I noticed the resembleance quite a while back. Pretty neat eh? Just when I thought they didn't have any real connection to the mustang's heritage

 

Might want to change that under your name

What do you think. Too much "bling?" Be gentle...

 

Blades not blingy.

 

Blade + spinner is a little too busy for me. :notnice:

 

Drop it, Bling is not even a word.

They look great, not a minivan looking wheel, or an all to common bullit wheel. Ill take a set please.
