I like the wheels that you have on the Source Horse but the bright trim inside these wheels would look good and get the wheel to stand out and pop a little more than the current wheels.

Darn.... Just when I thought I had my mind made up...

They've taken so long to come out with 05 fitments, I forgot about em. Thought I was going to go with the Shelby "Trans Am Style" Rims that are due in 6 months, but now these pop up :bang:

I love the Halibrand look, but OEWheelsdirect.com has some (Cobra 340) that look good enough for a 427 Cobra replica. Their website has been down for some time now, but they regularly advertise in Mustang magazines (January 2006 MM&FF, pg. 105). The wheels come in 6 different sizes, 2 finishes, most under $200 each, $25 for the spinners. I'm waiting for the website to come up to order charcoal 18X9s.

Not as good as the Mach 1's Heritage wheels.

I'm not a fan of the Mach 1 wheels. If I were going to go with the Magnum 500 look, I would've gotten the Wheel Vintiques Billet Magnums.

Sorry Guys. Gotta DISAGREE. Those look no better than a blown out version of the V-6 Wheel, that we are all trying to unload.

All opinions from all ranges but I love those and someday they WILL be mine!!

I've been looking for those puppies for awhile and was very close to settling on the Raceline lookalike but if we can get the real deal from Hallibrand that would be the stuff!!

wildstray...yours look great but they aren't Hallibrands?? ACIIIs?? Where did you find them???

Not everyone. I love the stock wheels, just wish they came in a bigger size or I could get some wider tires on them.

No offense to anyone but I wouldn't put those on my car if someone gave them to me, but that's why we have our own cars.
