calipers look good. Those fronts fronts seem to be a little wide huh?

The wheel? I agree.. the tire pokes a tiny bit... next time ill be going with something smaller. Ive heard invos run wide.

Love the new look man, great job on making a sick car even better

awesome look! I've been looking at those wheels. I don't think the offset is 100% correct? Especially since my bullitts already poke.
I would appreciate more pictures

Thank man... I've been trying to keep it unique and not the typical mustang build..

Yeah of course.. I have to get good pictures of the car in general with the rims. I feel like Rovos tried to get as much concave as they could off the rims and by doing so the front is a tad wide. I do however think the problem with my set up is the tire is too wide..

 

[Orange 94]

What size tires?

 

[Cpotts13]

What size tires?

275/35/18 Nitto invos, which as you can see bulge a bit. They run really wide.. I need to roll my fenders with 295/35/18's..

 

[Orange 94]

Ah, yeah those are fairly large. Guess I'll have to do some measuring and compare

Ever thought about painting the R in the center cap white? I think it would be pretty sick

 

[DavidBoren]

A body color white "R" in the center cap would look killer. Slick rims, though. I kind of like how they stick out. It's mean and aggressive, as long as it doesn't rub, I say roll with it.

The white R is my next little project! I'm also getting my fenders rolled and brakes power bled at ford. The way these calipers are make it hard to get air out without a vauum bleed or power bleeder.

The 255 on the front fit pretty good on mine.

By the time i need tires they probably wont make invos anymore... Only put 3k on the car last year, daily driven.

Rant: Kinda disappointed to see another big box retailer add the Rovos to their wheel line up (LMR). I bought these rims because of how unique they are and am REALLY hoping they don't go the way of fr500/bullitts/saleens/svt's where every other Mustang is rolling around with a set. The price tag ($300 per wheel) will probably deter most, I only say that because you don't see many cars with forgestars and they're in that price range. Maybe i'm just complaining. /rant

Side note, I will be washing up the Mach today as the weather calls for sunshine. Ill snap a few pics at a couple of locations as well.

 

[DavidBoren]

Don't worry, brother, you are unique, just like everyone else.

Nobody likes to be just another one in the crowd, but your rims look good, so you should take solace in that.

The Vossen CV3s start at $500 a wheel. I'm not surprised that these wheels are taking off. Mustang owners are not going to shell out that much money when they can get a rep for cheaper. Just be glad they look good and not too many people have them.

 

[DropTopPony]

$300 a wheel isn't that much for most but you can get a rep for half the cost so that will probably keep your wheels sorta kinda rare on a Mustang. Seeing them on the internet is different then seeing them local also.

 

[Orange 94]

I really like rovos. I feel they have hit a sweet spot in the market.
For our cars we have the shitty mustang reps will all rock, or you have to start digging through more expensive brands to find a decent offset or go custom like CCW.

They'll be popular, but I doubt they'll ever get as popular as our $150 reps.

 

[DavidBoren]

It's cute how much you ladies worry about who else has the same shoes as you...

Holy cow... did rovos rip vossen off or did vossen rip rovos off?? Those are the EXACT same rim..

Very true...

Only time will tell! Rovos did nail these on the head though..

Gotta keep it unique..
