DIB with bullit wheels or gt style

Hey people, Im trying to decide between one of these rims:

http://www.americanmuscle.com/black-...eels-1011.html

http://www.americanmuscle.com/matteb...eels-1112.html

http://www.americanmuscle.com/solid-...eels-1013.html

Im going for a Blue/Black theme on my car, so that's why theyre mostly black. Though honestly I want gunmetal color.. but none of them are available that way

Least for now. Anyways, does anybody have something these rims or something similar on their DIB ? I'd love to see it to get an idea of what they might look like. Thanks!

Bullitt's look great but I have only seen them in 20's so far. DivaDanielle has the gray ones on her Grabber vert and hey looks sexy. I would go 18x10 for all the corners and put 285/35-18's all the way around but that's just me. Do you have Brembo's? If you do you have to go big or get a +33ish offset to clear the calipers in 18". I like where you are going with your color scheme. I am going silver instead of black for mine.

Your right about her car, looks very very good! 20's is too big for me though.. Max i'll go is 19. Though originally I was thinking of getting 18 or even 17 if I got the bullits.. but after seeing her car, they look good even when theyre huge!

I don't have brembo's, so I'm safe there. originally I wanted to do a Blue/Gunmetal theme... but ran into some issues. First the rims aren't available in that color(though I spoke with the AM guy, he said maaaaaaybe later on their might but more. So im gonna wait a bit to see what happens).
The other thing I wanted to do was put a rocker stripe that said mustang.. in maybe gunmetal color also. but I can only get it in black(not even matte black) or silver. But im gonna keep looking around. I'll try to get a picture of what im hoping to make

EDIT: here you go(just imagine black tinted windows too)

The closest match to those rims are the 2010 premium gt style... but they don't have them in that color, so I started looking at the bullits. I don't like gloss colors or or bright colors or shiny things much lol

I think the first set of wheels will look best! I'm still deciding between blue & black or blue and silver. Leaning towards blue and black tho.

well so far I haven't done much but tint the windows, but already the car looks soooo much nicer! I'm guessing when I get the black rims it'll just keep getting better. silver will look awesome also though.

as for rims im leaning towards the bullitts.. but still cant decide between matte black and machined lip, or all matte black, both with the deep dish option. wish there was somebody who has done this already

I really don't like chrome, but even those rims look nice on that car!

I was messing around with an online photoeditor yesterday(I know how to use photoshop, but forgot about it lol) and I chose some customer pictures with the rims im interested in... After much debate(with myself lol) I think I'm going to go with the Matte black/machined lip Deep Dish bullitts. I really really like the ALL matter black deep dish bullitts too... but I just think it will blend in way too much with the obviously black tires and look odd. and as far as I can tell, the machined lip means no chrome!!!

Looks like it to me. I like the look but they are heavy. I like the matte grey and polished lips that Danielle has on her vert way more though.

Those would be my pick also, I bet they look great on a RR Mustang too...

Interesting.. When my ears are burning I go to the doctor and make sure I don't have an infection or make sure a bug didn't bite me or something, but I guess forum threads could help too

By the way your car is awesome! how do you like your rims? did they change the ride in anyway, or affect mpg or make you go the speed of light? I'm hoping getting bigger/wider rims doesn't affect mpg TOO much but idk

I've had them on since July 3rd of this year. My front calipers knocked off the two front wheels weights when I backed out of my garage. I called AM and they said they'd pay for all four to be re-balanced.

AM is so awesome. Do you have regular brakes or the brembo package?
