    So...the tire will be that much closer to the shock tube. I believe I will have room for it.

    Mine are actually the polished ones. I wish I had the chrome. They'd look so much better. That's the reason I'm looking for chrome now. If the CS69s didn't have the black at all, I think I'd be sold.

    No I hadn't. Thanks! I have seen the Beyonds, which look similar to the fanblades, which I like. I just don't care at all how the Beyond's spokes turn back into the wheel so much. The Stampede does look rather nice. They show the 18x9 as 25mm offset while my 340C is 32mm and I believe Dark's is 30mm. 25mm will sit inward more than the 32mm, correct?

    They do look similar enough. The biggest differences is that the Konigs don't have the same flat circle hub and I like that they are darker.

    The smaller the offset number, the more they will stick out. My fronts are 30mm and rears are 40mm. They sit flush in the rear, and just barely inside on the front. 25mm on the front would sit perfectly flush.

    Dark is right.. I have the black 03 cobra on my car were as the front are fine but the back is a 25mm offset and the stick out a little.. Its all really on your prefernce... Either way the Konig is a nice alternate as to everyother mustang rim out there ! And im sure being the car nut that you are ..LOL,... if you like them enough powdercoating them or added you own personal touch would set them off more !

    The rims Cervini uses for their Eleanor kit look awesome, a little more rounded in the spokes then those Konigs.

    For your car I'd go with the true anthracite wheels... I have the 18" charcoal wheels (rough mag finish) and I really like them. I'll probably paint them to have a sheen to them in the future, when I am in between tires.

    my two, if you get the FR500, get the hypercoated. I bought the charcoal and wasn't happy with them. I did a rough DIY paint job and they look better, although I need to get them repainted when the tires go bad. This is the way they were when I bought them.

    I wanted the Black with machined lip FR500s for my vista blue, but I saw a picture of the blackchrome fr500s on it, and Ive officially decided.. They look soo nice. I just wish I could see it in person. Now I dont know how to post pictures on here, but I think they look great. If you tell me how ill post it
