Opinions on these wheels??

I originally wanted SSR GT3's. But I keep hearing horror stories of them being soft and bending.

So.....I'm thinking about these BBS's. Let me know what ya'll think.

They're ok, but they just don't look like a Mustang wheels.

Wanna buy your 10th anniversarys back?

Personally I don't like them. I'm not sure what it is but they just don't look agressive enough.

I don't like em either, but I don't like any wheels like that. I gotta have chrome.

I don't like chrome, myself.

I'm just fishing around for different styles right now. I don't want the BBS RK's because they're too much like what I already have now.

I'm planning on spending in the 550-600 a wheel neighborhood. I just don't want to go any hogher than that.

$600 You go "G-money"!! If I had your money I would just burn mine! Just make sure you get a wheel everyone on the board likes..................because you know you will be changing wheels again in 6 months!

Maybe you ought to just lease a set of wheels

I've just about got it narrowed down to this wheel. They said the rear would have about a 4" lip and about a 2" lip on the front. I'm unsure if I want to go gunmetal gray in the center or keep it all polished like this pic......

Well...the reason I even looked at this type of wheel is because how some road racing mustangs I have seen use that type. And they look pretty good.

As I said though...I'm just looking around.
