I can't remember where I saw this car, but I love the wheels. I am pretty sure they are Niche Veronas. Can anyone tell me if they are 20" wheels? I think I'd prefer 19's for ride comfort, but these look great. Also if you can tell what color they are, please advise. Thanks,
Rob

They're Niche's standard finish, I think it's dark clearcoat in their terms. Those honestly look like 19s to me, with staggered tires. Are you lowered? I had Niche Lucernes on mine, 19x9.5 +35 offset all around. They weren't pushed out to the corners enough for me, but I like aggressive fitment. They actually fit the car just fine, but I wished I went with the +15 offset. I've seen one of our cars, slammed with Forgestar F14s, 19x9 +15 and they fit perfectly flush.

Thanks, Laser. I will be Steeda lowered as of next week, and will select my wheels and tires after that is done. I am pretty sure these wheels are what I want, as I have looked at hundreds the last few weeks and I keep coming back to these and smiling every time. I tend to agree that the amount of sidewall showing suggests these are 19's. I've written to American Muscle who hosts the photo, or did at one time, to see if they have any details.

I don't know what "pushed out to the corners" means. If you mean they didn't fill the well enough for your taste, this leave me confused, as I thought the 19 wheel + tire together could fill the well as much as a 20 wheel + tire, as the overall diameter of the wheel + tire is about the same regardless of the wheel itself. Obviously there are limits to what I mean.

Okay, I went to the source of the photo, an old advert on American Muscle, and saw this:

Application. This 20x10 Niche Verona Wheel fits the rear only of all 2005 to 2014 Mustangs, including the V6, GT, Bullitt, BOSS and Shelby GT500 models. Stagger with 20x9 wheels on the front for an aggressive muscle car stance and improved traction.


This is what I think I want -- only hesitation now is due to observations of some of you guys here that your 20's rub! Surely American Muscle would know not to sell these for Mustangs if it were a real problem (?) I will call them Monday and talk to one of their techs. Anyway, we now know they are 20's and not 19's.

Thanks again.

It all depends on how low you go and your tire choices, along with offset. Are you wanting to go staggered?
