A friend of mine is looking to buy a GT soon and is interested in these wheels. I was hoping to find some good leads for him. He is leaning towards 20s but he's willing to go a bit smaller.

thanks!

yeah, looking at those wheels, I'm liking them more and more, and black rims on a black Stang are pure sinister! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/33.gif[/img]

Here are the silvers on a black GT... I got mine from Doug for a great price. Give him a call or write to him. Nice guy to work with during the entire process... He had Chrome and Silver, but he may have the Black as well...

As for the pricing. I paid less than $2500.00 for the wheels, tires, 20 spline lugs, mounted, balanced and shipped. Took about 6 weeks due to a shortage of the front wheels.

Wheels : Foose Nitrous (Gray) - They call them "Silver" but more gray than silver.

Fronts: 20x8.5 (2.5" lip)
Rears: 20x10 (3" lip)

Tires: Falken Beta FK451

Fronts: 255/35/20
Rears: 285/30/20

I really like the look on the front of the car, but there rear I think would look much better with a taller / wider tire. Maybe a 295/40/20.

Doug sent me a set of 20 spline lugs as a gift for taking so long to ship. Usually they go for around $60 to $80 a set.

Doug can be reached at... 480-580-4169 or by email at dougp23@***.net

Let him know I sent ya.. I promised I would pass the word on his products and service.... all of which are and have been great from day one!

Ugh!! Grunt!! ME like much

They are a moral imperative!
Those rims are made specifically for a black GT.
My GT is Mineral gray with black rims.
I am now seriously thinking of buying those rims
I want to see them with Nitto 555's or the Fat BFG's
