I like Nates C.O. cobra. I feel like black wheels can only be pulled off with CCW classics. If you go with an all black wheel, your car will look like Halloween.

i'm in the same boat as the OP. i've been leaning towards the black chrome FR500's...but am a little weary on the finish. has anyone had problems with it? chipping/flaking/pitting? i have the chome 17x10.5's with 315s on the back now, but want something to draw a little more attention.

OP...I think your car looks great as is. I'd use the money for something else... MM FL SFC's, or anything else that'll help the car perform better. Not sure what your current mods are

Why does it feel like I'm the only Comp Orange guy with the Cobras still on the car?

Not the best pic, but yeah ( yeah, I know it needs to be lowered, but I drive over 4 huge speedbumps just going down the road to my house so no thanks)

There was a guy staying at my hotel at Mustang Week 2010 with an orange cobra and he had black chrome fr500's and it was bad ass.

I tried the black chrome and black when I had my CO Vert and liked the chrome look the best out of all.

After all of these pics I would go 18 inch Chrome 03 Cobra's, or Saleens in either black or chrome. I think the one pic with the black Saleens looked the best.

For the love of god stay away from the black wheels. They just look like you have dirty wheels.

Whatever you get, do NOT get chrome. Chrome on bright colors looks like ass. CO needs some contrast. I'd do black or black chrome, you decide what style wheels.

i agree 100%... go with black or black chrome. IMO, if you are having trouble deciding between black and chrome, you should prob go w/ black chrome. Then, in a way, you get the best of both worlds.

either way though, on comp orange, i would most def go w/ black or black chrome. chrome might not "look like ass" on bright colors as DSG said, but it undoubtedly doesn't look as good as black, etc.
