Where is the "not a big fan of either" option?

I personally think the painted ones on a titanium GT would look unbelieveable. I think thats what I'm going after.

For me with redfire, I should probably go with the polished ones.

Chose the painted ones. I could see the polished ones looking to bright and

Need something a little more down toned, so its more about the car, less about the car's wheels.

There are other 18" wheels designs I'd rather see, but I'd like to get your opinions and email this thread to the powers that be at Ford.

Well, in that case I voted for the painted because I think they would look pretty good with the TI paint like somebody else mentioned. Don't think I'd get them on any other color though.

I think any of the darker colors (black, the silvers/grays, refire, etc). Lighter colors would probably do much better with the polished. Kinda an argument both ways...

It would be kinda cool if they offered a "titanium package" where you get the painted wheels and the titanium paint, maybe even a titanium finish dash panel. Just a thought

The polished ones look good on some colours and the painted ones look good on others. Personally on my Sonic Blue I'd go with the polished.

I agree with what adrenalin said, but somehow I don't like the painted ones at all.

On darker color cars, I would use the chrome ones. On lighter cars i would use the painted.

I think the polished rims will look best on my Redfire GT.

I agree. Instead of this style, I'd rather see 18" versions of the current GT wheels, or a Magnum 500 look-alike.
