Can't decide on rims.

[colticus]

Thinking about getting new rims for my car and havent really decided which ones to go with. So I am looking for opinions.

Here is the most current pic of my car.


I was thinking about going with the Boss 302s wheels.



But ever since the '13 GT500 came out I fell in love the PP wheels. American Muscle recently released their version.



And now they come in black.




So what do you think?

I bought used BBP (Brembo Brake Package) wheels off of the 2011 Mustang GT for $600. These are my winter wheels. I like them.

Will you be cleaning these wheels yourself?

IF yes THEN A.
IF no THEN B.

 

[Jeff]

between those choices I'd go with the 302s wheel.

this might help you a little more

The Boss 302S wheels would look great. Can't go wrong with the blacked out look either though.

I like B better. I personally dont want any silver on my car i just think you cant go wrong with black.

My vote is for the 302s wheels.

I'd go with the gt500 wheels, I was looking at those myself on American muscle $170 can't go wrong

302s wheels. only problem is alot of people are running them. Your call. Dont forget to post pictures on your choice of wheels.

I got these as winter wheel, can't beat the price and it won't hurt as much if hit ice and curb my rim.

I went with the GT500 but I went down to 18s.

i went with the SVE drift wheels (18x9 all around) for my winter setup, i think they look better than my summer setup, which are the stock wheels at the moment.

here are a few crappy cell phone pics.

The 302S wheels look fantastic on white cars. I like the 2013 GT500 wheels and owning the previous version I think the new ones will be a PITA to clean.

 

[colticus]

Appreciate all the replies.

These wheels will be year round wheels as Texas does not have extreme winter months.

I think I'm leaning towards the black gt500s. I haven't found a pic if the 302S wheels on a non S that I really like.

GT500s get my vote!

 

[knappj69]

GT500s get my vote!

+1

I like the look and had a set of the Boss 302S rims on my 12' Brembo GT but found them very heavy. I ended up with a set of Forgestars. which are significantly lighter.

Sako: Can I ask what you're running for tires?

Sako: Can I ask what you're running for tires?

I'm running Pirelli Winter Sottozero's in 255/45/18.
I chose these against the blizzaks, because i didn't want to sacrifice handing in dry/cold weather conditions, which is what we usually see in MD. But the tires have exceeded my expectations in both snow, below freezing, and warm weather.
