So I have been going back in forth on what I want to do and what rims I would like to invest in for my OW Mach1. I am looking for opinions on the Black chrome saleen replicas...How do you think it will look? Opinions on other wheels if you don't like them. I am open to ideas. Oh and if you have heard of any issues with them. I wont be ordering them for atleast 2 weeks. If you have pics or can find pics please post them up. I am trying to find some as we speak but not having much luck.

hehe sorry. ANYONE can answer. I am still considering chrome or black chrome. I know what chrome saleen wheels look like on a mach but have yet to see the black chrome.

DD Black Bullits........a tad over rated, but one of my favorites on an OW mach.

OR


Black FR500s.


Both have a chrome lip (IIRC) so it look nice.

What do you have on there now... painted stockers? I personally think those look good, thats what I did with mine.

When I have money to upgrade to a larger, wider rim, Im looking at getting black 03 SVT rims... IMO they look sick on a OW Mach.

on a white mach1, the fr500 wheels with the silver deep dish lip look the best imo :thumbsup: you won't regret buying them.

Thanks for the opinions so far. Sorry Pony but the DD bullits are no longer an option. I don't want what EVERY mustang has. K and I noticed how every stang we saw had them. :( Oh well..Now I am torn on the FR500's and Saleen replicas. I keep going back in forth. I plan on going with 18X9 in the front and 18x10 in the back.

STFU and get the black chrome Saleens! :rockon: I've been dying to see them on a car but nobody in the universe seems to have them. The black chrome finish in person is unbelievable though. I bought some black chrome FR500s but sold them because I couldn't afford tires for them, but DAMN were they sexy :D


Saleens are probably my favorite Mustang wheel.

imo, the reason the fr500's look better than the saleen reps is because the silver lip breaks up the black from the wheel and tire. the solid black wheel with no silver lip just doesn't do it. its just all plain and black with no detail. FR500's ftw!



saleen reps :burn: fr500's

Thanks for the pics ShapeShifter. I like them ALOT. :-D


Black Chrome's would look sick on your Mach. It's a wheel that you really need to see in person but when they are shiny and clean they look sick. If you are wanting a black wheel on your car do the Black Saleens and you will not be dissapointed. I just sold my Black Chrome FR500's. I loved them but it was time for something new!

I kind of figure you might say the Bullits are 'played out'. I can understand and agree. It's just an OW stang is one of the few that I woudl still consider them.

FR500s IMO.

Have fun with whichever you choose though.:beer:
not a fan of black chrome.
