Nice! I'm in LC.
I use to go to the Lowes parking lot meets on Friday nights (518 at Pearland pkwy). But it's been a long while now with all this crapola going on

Nice, I’ve been there a time or two.

Proof positive of why these 18” AFS are the absolute best wheels for the car.

Looks amazing! What’s the specs on the tire size and suspension drop? Rolled fenders?
Hey man, thanks for the compliment!
Tires are toyo proxes sport in the front 255/40/18 (came with the wheels, I recommend 265/275 by 35/18) and toyo proxes TQ’s 315/35/18 in the rear. The suspension is stock with stock cut springs (1/2 coil all the way around, all ISO in). Fenders have not been rolled yet. I went on a 120 mile mustang cruise yesterday and had no issues with rubbing.
Man $2k for heavy ass chyna wheels lol

Check your messages, big fella.
Would be nice if they were spun forged castings, but what’s a better alternative?
You either want the stock look with the right 18” sizing or you’ll save weight.

I've had the AFS wheels in my cart several times but can't pull the trigger...lol! I'm just going to save up and eventually get some nice forged wheels. Here's a couple that I found that have an OEM look.
BC Forged HB35 $4k These intrigue me because they say their wheels can be machined to accept OEM center caps!
Forgeline FF1 $6k

Not trying to resurrect an old thread, but has anyone noticed the new forged wheel they are offering? Not much of a weight savings on the wheels, but wanted to see what everyone thought about it.
I’ve seen them and it’s quite tempting. The 03/04 wheel is by far my favorite wheel on the terminator. I too haven’t been able to pull the trigger on the chrome set. The forged are definitely calling my name.

Sounds cool but less than 2# per wheel saved on the forged mono block.

Excellent use of fireplace effect 
Looking good. Any inner barrel shots?

Very tempting, I cant get away from how much I love the stock style rims. If I get a set of these my options for brake kits increases at least. When do you plan on getting them mounted???
*Slight O.T.*
How hard/much would it take to polish a set of these out and does anyone have some pics??? I really love chrome on my SB but am guessing the quality of the forged rim is better than the chrome one. Have heard too many horror stories of crappy chrome quality with AFS wheels.
Im not sure when i will mount these. The car is parked till next year. The quality on the AFS forged wheel is top notch. I can’t find a single blemish on these wheels. Ive had the cast cobra wheel in chrome and black before from AFS Wheels. The only flaws with the coating on those where around the lug nut holes. Hopefully with them chroming them locally now the end result will be better. The forged wheels will be going on my black 03 that originally came with satin wheels. The brushed 18’s should give it a custom look but still retain that original look that Ford nailed perfectly on our cars.

If you do decide to go the forged wheel contact AFS and see if they can make you a set polished. I could see them offering that option at some point. If not you can tell them you will polish them locally and not to do the brushed finish.

The owner is very responsive and it does make me want to seriously consider it. I especially like the proper offset with the forged to avoid a spacer. A polished forged set would be on point!

I'm seriously thinking about buying a set of the forged monoblock 03-04 cobra wheels. Maybe tuck my True Forged mach 5's away for awhile.
I think they'll look good on redfire.
