apparently tire rack only has 19's i rele wanted 18's which they say they make but they dont have but im loving the look how do u think the 19's will look

 

I like mesh style wheels, but for these cars I think the mesh needs to be a little more relaxed and not so tightly wound. I also think some black on those wheels(or gunmetal) would really help to accent the car, especially the CS stripe. I also think you need a lowering! That would REALLY set the car off.

 

the CS is lower from the factory and driving in ny sucks i cant go any lower the front end worries me as it is now lol. i had someone photo shop the same rims in black on and it just dident have the POP WOW factor i think blue needs that crome / silver to stand off otherwise it looks dull

 

well wasnt expecting a chop....but they look alright...

 

You don't have to tell me about the CS being lower. This is why the springs I got won't give it a dramatic drop since there are a few areas around here that aren't too friendly to lowered cars.

I've always been more for a subtle look, but if you're going for the popping factor, then that wheel color should do it.

 

here r the blacks they did nuttin for me

 

I'm looking at mesh for my next set but want a lip on them with gunmetal/anthracite centers, car looks good, lower just the back with steedas, only about an inch drop.

 

Black rims only look good if they're very clean and you're standing next to the car. If you're rolling down the road they might as well be steel rims with the hubcaps removed.

 

Here is a little bit more PS work on them, they look a little bright to me in the first pic (though just a guess) though it might help.


Second pic incase you ever did lower the car

 

what tire sizes would u guys recommend with these rims + do u feel these rims will bolt up and look rite im not sure what offset and spacing the stocks r .


the asa rims r

Size: 19x8.5
Offset: 45mm
Backspacing: 6.49"
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
Rec. Tire Size: 245/45-19
Weight: 26.6lbs.

 

I vote for the 2nd pic of the lowered car. Looks sweet!

 

Stock 18 x 8.5 has a 6.82 backspacing and 50mm offset. Per the Ford racing catalog. I personally like bigger tires on the rear. I'm running a 285 tire on the back and love the look

 

^^^ hey can u post some pics of the 275's i went to ford today to look at the new 2011 19' rims with 245/45s and the tires looked way to skinny my dad said it lost that aggressive look so im thinking . 245/45 front and 275/40 rear ? is that what most people run ? id love to see some pics of ur 19's with 275s

 

I like Mesh, I had a few sets in mind when looking for new wheels.

As far as black wheels on Vista, you need black spokes with a silver/machine lip to not look like steelies, my old set:




If you are willing to go 19's, check out the Linea Corse Lemans

IMO, mesh doesn't look good on the Stangs. Too busy and makes it look like bling instead of muscle. I prefer the old school look and the stock wheels, IMO, are best suited.

 

wow thoes Linea Corse Lemans look sick i love the lip the only thing im not digging is the rivets

 

 

a set of RTR wheels would look sweet on that blue CS

 

Is that yours? That is AWESOME

 

All depends on the car and the specific color scheme of the wheels. Personally, I didn't build my Pony to be retro, and I wanted something different than stock. Went with black mesh and silver lips, looked great with my vert that has a black top. All personal preference! IMO it looks much more Euro than it does bling...doesn't really come close to "bling" unless they are chrome.
