I know some one posted a link about Chrome Mach 1 wheels being available but for a more retro look these will work better. They measure 18X9






Mach 1 Wheels


Plus $595 for a set is a sweet deal!!!

Those are very cool....I still like the ones from Wheel Vintiques better because they are dished but those are real nice for the money. Get some so I can see what the 18x9's with the correct offset looks like.

I looked at Wheel Vintiques and they are sweet rims. Problem is they want over $400 a piece for their wheels. This is $595.00 for all four wheels. Huge price difference. I plan on getting these but am going to wait for a while as my car doesn't come in until October, I just ordered it two weeks ago.

Why is there such a price difference. Are the ones up top not as good?

I do like the look though.

The difference is the ones offered by AFS like the one above are steel. The ones made by Wheel Vintiques are machined from billet aluminum.

Actually Wheel Vintiques Magnum 500 wheels only come in 15 inch sizes, or at least from what I saw. I found another company Newstalgia Wheel which has them and these are the ones that I saw for $400.00 a piece. Here's the link:

They can custom make them to fit the 05/06 Stang's. I vote for the Mach 1's, still a very nice wheel and much cheaper.

AFSwheels.com also has deep dish Mach 1 wheels as well. These are 17x10, but there are plans (or so I've read) for 18x10 in the near future.

Wheel Vintiques has larger ones too, the larger ones are billet rather than steel. I like them a lot, but not enough to justify the price! They have the repro steel ones, in 14x6 to 15x10 @ $128 to $178 each. Or billet ones in 17x7 to 18x9.5 @ $400 to $526 each

Yup, that's who makes the wheels shown here. They have a store on Ebay too.

Here's a little preview of what my car would look like. FordRacing421 did this Photochop for me with the Mach 1 wheels on a Tungsten GT.

Those look a LOT better than the ones that were posted in the other thread.
I wouldn't put them on an '05 though. Just something about using the look of "last year's model" (even though it was originally done in the 60's) on the new body style just doesn't look right to me. JMO.
