I feel the exact same way. If I ever have to get tires, which I doubt at about 5k miles per year, I'll get 284/45 on the rears next time.

Rich those wheels look great. And you don't see them on every Mustang like the Bullitt/Torque Thrust. I like the polished, I've only seen them in gunmetal before.

I knew there was something unique that drew me to those wheels.

Looks good. I also have those wheels. Post up some pics where the car isn't in it's own shadow. It's difficult to see the wheels since there are a pretty dark gunmetal.

If it needs centering rings, its not going on my car. Had enough headaches with customers cars as is. Another reason we quit selling wheels.
