You really do need some different wheels (not black). Gotta have some contrast. Looks like a drug runner.

Mustanger is dead on, the stripes need to be wide and close together. Only way they look good on pretty much every vehicle.

Wheels are temporary, will do 17's with 315s in the rear next year, the car is in primer and will hopefully be red (again) in the spring.

I say do what you want. Get some clear plastidip and see how it looks. Make sure it will peel off the flat finish though first. Now to thread jack for a sec. How do you like the flat finish. How is upkeep and durability of the paint. I've been contemplating going flat.

Hey Mustanger, I really love your car. White is my fave colour, unfortunately in the UK, it would have taken forever to find a white one.

Anyway, just in the process of striping my Midnight Blue SN95 after seeing yours! I've gone for twin 10" stripes with a 2" gap down the middle, and side stripes like the American Muscle ones, with Mustang gt text. I'll post some pics up when it's finished
