I'm torn between two different wheels, help?

I've been considering getting new rims for my mustang for the past few months- but I'm having trouble picking between;
Boss 338 wheels
And Shelby CS70s

have you tried photoshop to see what they might look like on the car? or found other cars that already have them on?

Yeah, I've seen both rims on cars. But I've only seen the CS70s in person. I guess it's a choice between deep dish or not

pretty much. I have deep dish, theyre awesome
of the two you put, i'd go with the Shelby.. cause I hate chrome so I don't like the first ones. but that's just me. but those shelbys look like they have white stripes down the centers... would it match with the rest of your car? is your car the one in your avatar?

I love the deep dish look, I don't think the chrome rim on the boss' would be too blingy if I went with those. But the stripes on the shelby wheels are more of a light grey in person, I've seen them on blue and grey mustangs but never black. And yeah my mustang is in my avatar, I've got 17inch gunmetal bullitts on at the moment.

The only problem I see with the Boss wheels is picking an offset that would look best with 20inch

My vote is the Boss Motorsports....if you want some gray to accent things, go with the grey centers instead of all chrome. I had them in 20's on my 09...looked great and everyone loved them

What offset did you use and where did you get them? They look amazing

I bought them through MrWheelDeal.com.....at the time they came mounted with 285/35/20 and 255/40/20.....shipped to me in AZ mounted and balanced for around $1300...wheels and tires. The offsets are whatever Boss Motorsports does stock, or as built by them. On their website they show a 20X10 and a 20X8,5...that's what I used.....no custom ordering or offsets were needed. They fit perfect with the lines of the car...at least in my opinion.

I just checked.....MrWheelDeal is still going strong....for me, very easy to deal with and when I bought those, great pricing. Go to the website, fill out the price request and they are very quick about replying. Usually within a couple hours.

the top ones in the first post and you must like them a tad more also because you posted that picture first.

Thank you so much, I'll definitely check them out.
