AMR Charcoal Wheels

Does the 18" staggered AMR charcoal wheel package look good on the 14 GT? I think with the staggered wheels, they are actually shorter than the stock 18" wheels/tires and i dont want to make the opening in the wheel well look even larger, but they are cheaper than the 19" plus tires are cheaper down the road. Also does anyone have any experience with the Sumitomo High Performance HTR Z II tire that comes with the package? I just really like the staggered look with a slightly wider set-up in the back. Does American Muscle allow changes were you can switch out the 275/40-18 rear tire for something a little wider? I realize they are not a top of the line wheel, but they are on sale right now and with the discount they are only about $1,072 not counting the TPMS kit and I really don't want to drop $2,500 for the better stuff. Speaking of the TPMS is it better just to order without the kit and have a local tire place mount and balance them and reuse the stock TPMS equipment?

The AMR Wheels look great on the 11+ Mustangs. It's definitely the most popular Wheel option we offer. 18's may be a little small for your car, but I think it will still look great. Most guys are running 19's or even 20's on the 11+ Coyote's.

The Sumitomo tires will do the trick. They're a great option and are very affordable. They're made with a hard compound so they'll last a long time!

You can do whatever you'd like with the TPMS Sensors. We do mount and balance Wheels, Tires & TPMS sensors for Free.

Hope this helps!

Hey Dan what color code are the Charcoal AMRs? I scratched mine and need to touch them up a little bit.


And OP go with 19's or 20's. 18's are to small IMO for the S197 body. Here is my '11 with staggered 20's.

I'd go at least 19's. 18's look small on the 10+ mustangs. I prefer 20's since the tires are cheaper than 19s but it depends on the road conditions where you are at. I'm in phoenix and we have awesome freeways and no weather to affect driving. 20s work for me.

I used the Duplicolor graphite grey wheel paint to touch mine up. Cant tell the difference. I curbed mine and sprayed a little on some card board then brushed it on.

Dupli-Color GM Storm Grey Metalic seems to be a perfect match for me.
The code is NG GM 522

Here is a pic of mine with 20's also mine are Black, but you get the Idea. I also would go with the Mount, Balance, Tires (hydrogen filled) & Sensors from AMERICAN MUSCLE. Like Dan said it is free then the only thing you have to spend money on is to have them Mounted on Stang. Also make sure you have your Stang Alignment checked too.

PM Dan. He will probably respond quicker that way.

Hey Guys,

I wish I knew exactly what the color code of the AMR's were for you guys. Unfortunately, I don't. Let me see if I can get with our purchasing team and contact the manufacturer. If I can track down the Color Code, I will definitely let you guys know!
