Rims Poll

Ok so I had my mind sorta set on the 18X9/10 Black FR500, but I went for a drive today with my buddy who just got a new stang and he says to go with chrome ones now. Plus to add to my confusion we saw a ton of stangs with chrome bullitts that looked really good. So I am back to square 1 again. Should I go black or chrome? Bullitts (Which ever guy around here has) or the FR500's (that are rare here)? I have a laser red with black accents throughout the car. Vote and leave your opinion. If you guys have pics with the laser red (D3) with either black/chrome fr500's/bullits post them plz. Thanks

This is a hard vote. You should really post pics of the rims as in your poll....

Or even get someone to photoshop them on your car.

DONT DO BLACK , THEY LOOK LIKE ***. not liking the bullits , but chrome or anthricite fr500s would look good on your car. IMO.

If you go black, i would say make sure they have a chrome lip.

i find they look like steelies when you are moving...
Not a fan of all black wheels on a red car....


But in the end get WHAT YOU want.

yeah sorry I thought most of u guys would know which ones I am talking about cuz they are pretty common rims (at least in the US). Here is the FR500 that I wanna get. Its all black spokes and has a polished lip and the ever so popular bullitts.

When i get the cash i am going to throw some Black Bullitt Deep Dish 17's on my '04 Black GT, i would have got 18's but its lowered now and look good with the Chrome stock cobra wanna beee's!!

Any change on your ride will look good or better than what came out of the factory, make sure you get good rubber on them... thats the most important part!

I'd go chrome Bullitts, they look sweet and are easy to clean. The FR500s aren't a great-looking wheel IMO, maybe that's why nobody runs them, lol. Here's a pic of my '01 in a similar angle, maybe White_Snake or someone could photoshop it for ya.

It's a bit dark, but thet's the only one I have at that angle, these are 17x9 front w245/45/17 and 17x10.5 rear w/275/40/17, tires are BFG g-force sport, which were great in dry and wet. Click the pic for a clearer, larger pic.

Also, no offence but those stickers above your stripe aren't making your car look cool IMO.
