I can always count on the SVTP boys for some help when it comes to my car.

I can't decide what wheels I want to put on my 98 GT... I really like the chrome saleens, and the black deep dish bullits. If there is another 5 spoke wheel that you think would look better, let me know!

Here's the car. Stock suspension etc... Plan on sportline Eibachs

It depends on your direction. The chrome wheels look sweet but are you trying to go stealth? Then I'd suggest the black wheels. Of course I really like the Konig Beyond five spoke wheels a friend had on his with lowering springs. They looked tough!

^Agree

It depends on what type of look you are trying to go for. Do you like the flashy look of chrome then I would do the Saleens. If you like a "stealth" like look I would do the black Bullits.

Depending on your spending range I would try to see what else is out there as well. I am selling my FR500s because I want something different myself. Something that is not a "Mustang specific" rim and still in black with a chrome lip.

another vote a non-bullit rim. For some reason, they just never appealed to me.

Getting close with the saleens, although i'd go for the 00R's if I were set on 18's. I'm sure you hear that a lot tho...or at least used to. Not sure if their still as popular :shrug:

yea i had a 89 black tbird SC with 18x9 chrome cobra Rs. i really liked that look but i kinda want a change up. chrome saleens woudl look beautiful but not too original. i definately dig the stealth look, and not too many people in my area have that set up...

bullitts...

how much?

I am not 100% sure but I was looking @ $350-$400 probably for all 4. 18X9 and 18X10. I need to do an overview of the rims and see how much they are worth. But if you are interested you can PM me.

Any wheel that is based off of the Torque Thrust style is the best for a Mustang, IMO. I have a black set on my 67 that were made in 1965.

the saleen replicas come in black and they are bad ass. I am a big fan of the saleens, i think they look the best on the 94 to 98 car
