I ordered a GT with the perf pack, which only has the black spoke wheels as an option. I will probably replace them ASAP, but I'm assuming that I'll have to wait for 2015 wheels because of new offsets and brake size. Is this accurate or am I making bad assumptions? Will current wheels work?

 

I am having my black PP wheels powder coated for about 1/2-1/3 the price of a new set of wheels.
They are nice looking, except for the black.
I already have the shop, and color picked out. We are just waiting on the when!
Gonna have the windows tinted while we are down with the wheels!

 

What color are you going with?

 

Guard. Although I've been *this* close to changing it to Ruby Red a few times.

 

Sorry, I meant, what color are you painting the wheels?

 

Hehe, I replied to a question that wasn't even for me. That will teach me to post in forums at 5am.

If I do paint them instead of selling them/getting new wheels, I'd probably do an lighter anthracite color on them. Maybe something like this.

 

"Sterling Charcoal Gunmetal" It is a bit darker than I wanted, but will be stunning in the light, and on the road.
As to the tint, nothing drastic, I think a 25% tint will be good.

 

Sterling Charcoal Gunmetal will look very similar to these!

 

Gaurd also for the car....MAN I cant wait! Its gonna be cool!

 

Brian, what "type" of wheel...meaning style, would you go with?

 

Dunno yet. I don't like "spokey" wheels. I like them them a bit chunkier, like Bullit style wheels. I LOOOOVE the 50 Anniversary wheels, but even finding those somehow (obviously they won't be available since nobody is going to give them up and they are limited) wouldn't work since I'm going to have staggered rubber.

 

Gotcha, it will be interesting to see what various mfg's come up with wheel wise for the '15.

 

Keep in mind usually Ford wheels weigh a ton. I would move on with some Forgestar F14s in 19x10 and a19X11 and move on to a 265/35/19 with 295/35/19 rears.

 

Dont Forgestar wheels get a bit pricey?

 

You want to play you got to pay... A heavy gravity cast wheel no thanks...
