New wheels 2013 gt/cs
Well the factory wheels did grow on me a bit after I received the car but I just can't get over the width of the wheel and the poor offset. After searching for what seemed like weeks I had decided to go with the drift/rtr/eurotek,amr style wheel. Something was holding me back though and I finally decided i wanted to try something I hadn't seen on a mustang as of yet. i settled on Mrr GT8's staggered 8.5/9.5-19.
I just had them installed today and I only had my phone to shoot pics with and I've discovered how tricky an all black wheel is to photograph. here are a few for now until I can get my better camera on them.

A few more. Sizes on the tires are 245/45/19 on front +35 offset, 275/40/19 on rears +38 offset. they are just inside the wheelwells on the rear although from some angles it appears they aren't.

They look great on your CS. Are you a State Trooper or are you taunting them

Another white car with black rims,...almost as overdone as black on black. I always picture hub caps when I see black rims. Don't anyone get but hurt its just an opinion. Gotta make your mustang different as best you can from the rest.

^ I'm not a fan either unless it's a REALLY aggressive car. I think they'll look a lot better with a drop since the car already has a lot of black on it.

another white car with factory stock silver wheels?? But hey don't get all butt hurt about it.
Seriously though, I felt the same way about the black wheels but then after looking i didn't see anything that I thought would give me the look I was after, especially with all of the black accents on my car. I had an 08 whiite cs vert with the polished wheels so I didn't want to do that again, then a 2012 black coupe with just the stock cs wheels. Once I got this car I knew I wanted a wheel that was dark and went between charcoal and black as well as a few wheels with black rim and polisshed spokes. Overall the all black wheel just fit the scheme better IMO.
I do appreciate your feedback though.
few more pics with an actual camera...

Thanks for all the kind words.
Wheels came from element wheels. Ask for Robert. He was very knowledgable.
