they are ok. Kinda look like Bullits in a way, with the way the spokes taper outwards.

The Bullitts are nice and it wouldn't bother me a bit to keep them. I saw these and thought they looked kinda like the fan-blades so I thought I would post them.

I think those would look sharp on the '05. I am looking for at least a 9" width though. Thanks for sharing.

I think they look GREAT.Only prob is that their painted all the way to rim edge and the idiot tire installers would chip the paint on them.Otherwise they look really good.

I guess that depends on where you take them. The wheels on my Mazda 6 are painted all the way to the edge and I've had one wheel replaced (I curbed it) and a flat fixed at the same shop and they didn't leave a mark on either wheel.

Those look cool! They are closest i've seen to the Ford fan blades. I might get those myself.

Look good but the "real" fanblades look better. A rumour says they will be an option for 2006. Anyone know?

I've heard that as well. I'm waiting until late '05 to buy a Mustang so hopefully they'll be available in '06. I posted the info for the owners of '05s who might want the fan blade look without waiting.

I personally would like an 18" version of the cool halibrand look wheels on the V6, those things are the sheet.

Not bad, but I still prefer the fanblades myself.
