Whatever you do, Dont go with 20" Torque thrust 2's.There is a mineral grey one here locally and it looks like crap.Wheels just dont go w/the new body style Mustang.

Get you some Hallibrand knock-offs. I like the ones in the ebay link you posted.


I think the charcoal center section looks good with a red car.

I'm probably going to go with a set of 20" Axis GTR wheels. I feel the clean and simple design matches the hard lines on the Mustang body. Plus, they have painted centers and clear coated lips, which means ultra low maintenance. Since the car is a daily driver and gets parked outside, these are important issues to consider

FM5s look 1993 to me. Thats when they first came out, and they still use the crappy stepped lip on them. No thanks
