I'm so BUMMED!!!!
Well, the wheel debate (disagreement!) is over at our house.

Him: loves the stock polished 18" Pony Package rims

Me: loves the Magnum 500 rims

We even got into a spat over this, which we rarely ever do. Solution: draw an envelope, one with "new wheels" inside, and one with "stock wheels" inside.

Well - I let him draw the envelope and dammit if it wasn't the stock wheel one. I'm stuck now. ****. Seriously bummed. If I weren't so honest, I should have just put "new wheels" in each envelope. Too late now though.......

Well, I'm not gonna hold my breath! I'll have to think of something else to do to the car, haha. He actually offered to have the stock wheels partially painted to make me happy, but reality is - they aren't the kind of wheel to do partial painting on and I still wouldn't like them!

Agreed. The problem is they're just too narrow. I honestly would be perfectly happy with any of the stock wheels if they were at least 9.5" wide and +35 offset. Any of them would be fine.

Doesn't help with the offset and their services are more than a new set of wheels.

I love you too, but I really want the Magnum 500 wheels. And even though I agreed to go by the envelope drawing method to settle this.....I am still female, so I can change my mind at anytime, lol.

Here's my solution! This should be easy: Magnum 500 wheels for $600, or a second Mustang @ $67,000 haha.
