But then again. why limit yourself to just Ford replica wheels? Look around for something else. If you are truly so concerned about being different, then why not branch out and try something different. Try a Steeda wheel, or an American Racing wheel, Or a Centerline. Paint or powdercoat the centers black. I guaruntee if you got Ultralite II's and powdercoated the wheel centers black, or even just painted them, you would be THE ONLY ONE with those. Anywhere. Period.

Or maybe the same technique applied to an Am. Racing wheel. Try and truly be different if you want your car to stand out.

Ok i went ahead and did the steeda chop because i had good pictures, and i'm a little biased... haha, but really, they are cheap, strong, light, fit good, and look awesome.

First chop, regular Satin Ultralite II's

Black painted centers (easy to do, wheels have a satin finish anyway, just lightly rough up with 800 grit sandpaper, and paint on a couple of coats.

Personally, I think the black painted ones would be AMAZING on your car.

All wheels are sized at 18 inches

not a bad thought, moving into something out of the Ford spectrum....most guys won't, but i've seen some pretty sweet examples before

I think a lot of it is determined by cost, the ford replicas are usually pretty cheap in comparison to other wheels, that's why i suggested the Steedas, they are pretty cheap.

I talked to my guy at stangmods.com...because they used to sell steeda wheels, and he said steeda discontinued them?

Yeah, Steeda discounted their wheels, 18X9.5 wheels in satin are just 179 per wheel. Not sure what the 17x 9 price is, but i would suggest going with 4 18x9.5's with 285's or 275's in the front, and then 295's in the rear.

i have eagle alloys...only 16x7 thought...but they do make them larger....they're chrome but extremely dirty in this picture



i've always wanted these DD mach's...never seen them on an SN95 but think they would look awesome
