Looking to change up the wheels on my 2012. Have always like the FR500 wheels, but they don't make them in a 19".

Found a set of 50 year appearance pack wheels for sale, but want to see how they look on my car first, before driving to get them.

Anyone have photoshop and willing to help me see how they would look?

Wasn't there a post on here recently about the '15 wheels having a slightly larger hub such that it would not be hub centric on a previous gen?

That said, I think those would look great on a S197

I don't have Photoshop. i just used a snipping tool.

doesn't look great, but it gives you an idea.

Not sure. From what I can find on google there seems to be a debate on the center bore of the 2010's - 2014's. The range seems to be from 70.3 to 70.5, and the 2015's are 70.6. The difference's are 1/10th's of millimeter...which doesn't seem substantial enough to cause major issues.

Thanks! It gives me a pretty good idea.

no worries. FWIW, I like your existing wheels better.

I agree with Joe.

Question though, on the 50 year anniversary pic above. That's a yellow one! I thought the 50 year anniversaries only came in oxford white and kona blue (2015). So what is that yellow one?!?!?!

The yellow one has the 50th Anniversary appearance package. The 50th LE was only available in Kona and Wimbledon white.

Except for the KB and WW colors, I'm not crazy about the LE or an S550 with the appearance package. The chrome grille insert is a deal breaker for me....I prefer a clean grille.

I like my current wheels to, they are stock and since I lowered the car they seem a little tucked. They have a +50mm offset, and 50 year wheels have a +42mm offset. Most aftermarket options are +30mm offset, and they just seem to stick out too much.

The wheels are off a 50 Years Appearance Package, which was an option on the '15 GT/Eco-boost Premiums. Appearance Package cars came with chrome taillight trim, unique leather seats, wheels, and faux gas cap badge on the truck(like all the euro spec mustangs). The ones in the Kona Blue / Wimbledon White are the Limited Edition 50th Anniversary

My buddy's car. Imagine it white. He has 1" spacers front and rear though.

The master has spoken!!! Thanks Gabe!

Agreed. The S550 wheels look great on an S197. I might consider them when it comes tie for me to switch.

Another possibility might be chrome. Normally I don't care for too much shiny on our generation Mustangs, but chrome looks great on a white Mustang.

I'm with ya Tom on that. I like the black rims with the PP for all the other colors. I'm not really a black rims fan even though my car has them. I think the S550's look good with them.

Looks awesome! Thank you.
