Allright folks...since the weather should be cooling off in the next few months (hopefully) I'm excited to start drivin the stang again on the weekends. I absolutely hate the wheels I have on my car, and would like to get some opinions on the best looking wheels for a black cobra vert. They have to have a "dish" look. Pic's and links are appreciated, and thanks in advance!

well if you're looking for a "dish" look my vote goes to the Deep dish black chrome fr500's http://www.wheelreplicas.com/ebay/46181651b.JPG:twothumbsup:

Yes, I was looking at those as well. They are super cheap and look good. That is for sure an option as there are a ton of replica mfr's out there. I just don't want a pos wheel though.

yeah thats true, but they do look badass you gotta admit that!

I hear True Forged wheels are the shit, just hella expensive, but it might be worth it to check them out

Those rear tires look like they might be the Hoosier DR's. I've heard those tires hook like a slick!

Thanks, How's it workin out with the ported eaton? Did you get any dyno numbers yet?

The wheels are the chrome 10.5 inch FR500's with the 335/35/17 drag radials. I had to use a 3/8" spacer, low profile IRS bolts, 3" wheel studs. I lowered the car with a 5/8 cut on the stock springs. I don't have any rubbing issues even with 13 psi going around the turn at the end of the track. They do hook great, but I'm not sure how long they will last since they seem pretty soft.
