Still Shopping for the Right Wheel, Opinions Valued

Help me pick. I am getting closer and closer to picking the right set of shoes for the Mustang and really would like for your opinions. Good or bad, all are appreciated.

I'll start with a picture of my car (I currently have the Center Fog Light Kit with a Pony Badge eiliminating the grille you see here). I'm hoping to get some updated pics if the weather cooperates this weekend.




First Option: AR Torq Thrust II's Custom 20x8 and 20x10




Second Option: True Forged Wheels Chicane 19x8 and 19x10

winner right there!!

I'm starting to agree that the Torq Thrust is the better looking wheel. Especially with my appearance mods to date. Anyone else, opinions?

I love the wheels you already have.

Cool, thanks.

I don't mind the stock polished wheels, I just prefer the deeper lip. Especially on the rear wheels. Plus, you can't go much past a 245 series tire on a 8" rim.

PM me if interested in the polished bullitts and tires.

Definitely the Torq Thrusts with some tall fatties on the rear!
BFG g-Force KDW
295/40 for the rear(29.5" tall 12" wide)will fit on stock suspension. Mine are 28.3" tall 11. 5" wide and have enough room to grow to the size above
245/40 for the front(27.7" tall 9.8" wide)
IMO that will fill the wheels wells nicely and give that old school look of big meaty tires even on the 20" wheels and without needing to lower your car.

I WOULD SERIOUSLY CONSIDER REMOVING THE JEWELS FOR U66'S CAR

Headlights should not be 'on' down there.
+1 for the Torq Thrusts - true to the charachter of the car IMO.

Or anything similar to that in the BBS style.

just what is wrong with hard nipples
I like the second choice

I want these 19" Saleen Parnelli Jones:

Those look too similar to the early Miata wheels

definetly the torq...will make the car so much more meaner

My votes for the Torque thrusts. It will maintain your car's theme and give it an even more aggressive look.

+1000!

can not beat that with a STICK!!! Love those wheels

Not in the consideration set but I personally want some FR500 looking wheels I think they look great especially in black with polished lip but that's just me.

hard choice for you though. you wanna go old school or euro..? I guess it's up to what you're building your car to be. I might be nuts or maybe it's a carryover from my 240/drift days but I'd like to see some mixed torq thrust wheel packages with 5 spokes for the turning wheels and 6 spokes for the power wheels, once again that's just me.

Yes, they do, but only because the early Miata wheels were likely Panasport copies of the original Minilites as run on ACTUAL MUSTANG RACING CARS in the 60s and 70s. That may not be impressive to you, but I was there, and they are inscribed in my memory as a feature of the best racing series in my experience. You want to match a potent aspect of genuine Retro Mustang Life? Those'll do it.
