(Bullitt Rims)American Muscle Vs.American Muscle

[Novice]

Title is wrong, American Racing vs American Mucsle
Both Companies have my Rim size that I want to achieve but only thing in doubt is the style. I never had a harder decision when it came to my Mustang. What do you guys think? The Deep dish appearance might be the different. I looked at the charts and the Offsets are the same.
American Racing

I like the deep wheel lip on them, takes away the front wheel drive look.

Thanks for the Replies.

Would 17x9 in front look funny if I had 18 x 10 in the Rear?

 

[Slo-Vert]

your front wheel well would look funny but you would have a killer stance

I think you should go with a 18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the rear.

What size tire did you end up putting on them?

I went w/ the American Muscle Anthracite deep dish wheels, so I'm pretty bias toward them, but that's my vote.

Here's my car w/ them

I was putting 275/35/18's on it until I went to have them put on today and the 2 front tires were rode on while flat (they are run flats) and we found some bad cuts on the inside of the tires so now I just ordered some 265/35/18's

I have the American Racing Shelby wheel and if you're wanting a small lip on the front and a deep lip on the rear go with the American Muscle. I specifically asked the guy where I bought my wheels if the dish was different front to rear and he said yes. Well he didn't lie to me but it's less than 1/2in. I like the way it looks, but I wish the rear had a deeper lip on it.

maybe if you get the older style American Muscle 18x9's but the new ones (same ones I have) have a nice lip on the front, almost the same as the rear's.

Sorry, I didn't really say much about the Shelby AR's other than there wasn't much of a difference front to rear. If you've never seen them in person (I hadn't at the time I ordered them) you'd think the same thing I did when the guy said the rear had a deeper lip then the front. Like I said it does, but basically both front and rear are deep dish wheels. There is a slight difference on the rear but it's not even noticeable until you actually measure it.
