Trying to be different from every other car. Im wanting to change my stock wheels to something that pops. I will put my wheels up and keep them. Love the mesh and the finish of the PP wheels just hate the 19's up front and the sandblasting my paint gets with the goodyears. Even with Jaegers front flaps and roush side and rear splitters. Here is how my car looks now.

Here is a photoshop of the Forgestar f14 in gunmetal that I want to order in 22x9 and 22x10.5

Had 22's on my 06 with sport lines and it looked great. What do you guys think?

Just do 20s all the way around, 22s are to much on a GT500 IMO, but it's your car do as you please

Yeah but those were chrome wheels that didn't match. These look a lot like performance pack wheels. If I could find a 20" performance pack front I would be set. The rear won't fit the front I don't think.

20" ADV.1 wheels. Nothing about Forgestar wheels scream "show car" to me... and 22" are too big for a GT500. Your car though, do what you will.

22s if it's just a show car is ok I guess,but if you want to drive it at all... Not so much

You are not taking in account the increase in ride height you will get by putting a bigger wheel on the car. The photo shop is great, but it doesn't compensate for that.

But if you want to look ghetto, all you man.

22's,,,,We Be Pimpin',,,,not a good look for a Shelby. Curb feelers and hydraulics will compliment them.

Your car,,,roll how you choose. :coolman:

I feel 20's are the most if you still want some go and 22's are for show. Since you are looking to do show, then buy all means get the 22's.

Also, I prefer those wheels over the ones in your last thread. DO IT!!!!

Buy my True Forged SS's that are for sale in the wheel section. lol They're 20x9 & 20x11's. $2,450 for the wheels only, $3,400 with brand new nitto tires.
