Question Would like opinions on 19" Mahdi TS-5 wheels

Hello,

I think 19" wheels are a good compromise between the 18's and 20's.
Do you think these wheels are too import-looking? http://www.naprejapan.jp/ts-5/ts5_sl18.jpg

I was looking to get a staggered set 19X8.5 front, 19X9.5 rears. They are 2600 dollars a set, but I'm not sure if it flows well with the design of the mustang. I can get a hookup for 1600 for a new set since a friend doesn't like them on his car.

I have a black mustang, maybe considering black matte stripes in the future. Looking at TS-5 wheels, the fanblades that I want plated in black chrome, black deep dish bullits, and the Konig Beyonds.

thanks,
mike

They're different. I kinda like them. But, I'd say get the Beyonds in 20's and have them black chromed! Can anyone photoshop that?

well, he had his on a 350z, but he wanted to go with the full-on black and black look so he bought some rims with black spokes and polished lip. i forgot which ones, i think one of the konigs. well no matter what, the konigs even in 20's will be cheaper than the ts-5 wheels. i can get konig 20 inch rims for about a grand and with tires will be around 1700 dollars. that's almost the price of the ts-5 wheels alone!

I think the TS-5 wheels are lighweight or else I have no idea why they would retail 2400 dollars a set. I thought this was a great deal on these wheels, but even so I wonder if the Konigs would be better?

Help me decide!!

I think they would look sharp! They have the old school 5 spoke look to them but yet they are modern to fit the look of the new Mustang.
