So ive given up on white stripes
Your stripes are matte black? Or semi gloss black? Either way, I'm going to go against the grain and say the anthracite. I used to love everything all matchy, but now I like a little contrast. While you're down there, I'd upgrade the rear rotors to '13 GT500 spec because they're going to look puny behind the 20s. And paint the rear calipers matte black to match your fronts. The black calipers will also stand out a bit on the gray wheels. Personally, I'd also put chrome coated amber bulbs in your turn signals and front sidemarker lights to give your front end a little contrast. It'll still look nice and clear when the lights are off, but have some contrast (and look more OEM) when the lights are on. I know you probably won't like those suggestions, but just throwing them out there - it's how I'd do it if I had a GB car.
Yay, you stayed with the black stripes!!! For something that has zero affect on me, for some reason it makes me very happy.
I agree black wheels would look very good, you should match them relatively close to the type of black on the stripes, although it doesn't have to be exact.
Are you going with bullit style wheels like in the picture, or are you still deciding on type as well?

Ok, I looked up some pics of them, they look pretty similar to bullit wheels, I think they'll look really good in black on your car.
I know they're Boss 338's on that car, but it's a copy of the style, and it's a good example.
Bullitt wheels are a copy of their original styling.
btw my stripes, I'd call them a semi-gloss.

Everyone else has commented on the wheels, so I will make a suggestion for tires. In lieu of All Season tires, I would recommend you consider full winter tires, especially the Bridgestone Blizzaks. They are not just for snow, but for cold temperatures. As the temps drop below 45 degrees, the all season tires will also lose traction, while the full winters do not have this problem. Of course this only works if you plan to switch back to summer tires when winter ends. I take my 19's off and put SVT wheels with the Blizzaks on and honstly, the Mustang becomes another car in ice and snow, as well as cold temperatures.
Good luck with your wheel choice!

Danielle, if the black stripes on your car have a gloss finish to them(?), then you should go with a gloss finish on the wheel.
That way everything ties in together with the gloss black rear light section to create a unified appearance, if you follow me ?
Just my thoughts on the matter Danielle for that absolutely stunning car of yours.

Yes, this. The wheels can be black but with the wheels you've picked out, they will still have the silver on the outside which is a good look IMO. I'm not fond of the solid black wheels. Good call.

DC might get a random snowmageddon here and there, but they have far too many residents (plus I live in the beltway bubble) to not have the streets at least liveable. I've decided that snow tires will be overkill. Like by alot.
