I don't think the Volks are going to work... the newest ones you posted, the GT-7's, those are the wheels they put on the older Mustang in the newest F&F... lol. Stick with the classic look, or like Cheese302 said, go with Steeda Ultra-lites if you need some really lightweight wheels.

IMO, I would go with BBS Ford GT wheels for the money that is being asked for those Volks.

The WedSports are lightweight and available in 18x10 for our cars. Look fantastic to boot.

Go for 1 or 2. Stay away from 4, it looks like a wheel that shoulg go on a Honda or Acura.

Retro car + modern wheels = confused.
+1... And as for lightweight... I'd rather save the money and take weight off other parts of my car. Your money

i love VOLKS...


im looking at 19" volks because my 20's are too big for NYC area.

GT-7, GT-S and GT-M

i believe the GT-7's were used on the '67 Mustang in the movie "fast furious tokyo drift"

made that mustang really cool. 19x8.5 and 19x9.5

weighs only like 20 lbs each and roughly $600 each..not a bad deal for customer forged wheels that are DRIFT durable!

here is a great place to get CUSTOMER volks wheel/tire packages.

they will do mustangs and they will make sure the front wheel will clear big 14" calipers
