They're a nice design, but 17s are lost in those arches!


BTW - wonder if the inspiration for those wheels came from Kyle Evans.......check TN's avatar to see what I mean

I like the original ones better, and was a bit disappointed they didn't have that style in 18".

I like 'em - they appear to be machined/painted and would have looked much better w/ my Ingot Silver than the ones that came on it. I wonder how many detractors actually own a base '13 that these would come on.

^ Some people, like me, specifically ordered stuff *I didn't really want* to NOT get the original 17" wheels. And I liked those better than these...but these aren't bad IMO. The more people who dislike them, the better for Ford (the base GT wheels are hard to find/see too) and aftermarket. [I'm in Canada, so may have different ordering combos.]

I maybe would have kept the stockers if they had been the ones in the original post.

Lol. I don't think there's a rim on the planet that I dislike more. Fords idea of energy saving tires is false. It took plenty of energy to find someone to take them off my hands.

Love your new wheels btw. Looks d@mn good!

Yeah....the pics of the wheels/tires are from my ad on the local board, been for sale for a few weeks now and not a nibble (4 rims/tires/sensors w/ 600 miles for $500)

Thanks for the compliment as well.

they are to small for such an aggressive wheel design.
