Wheels
 
Been tossing around the idea of getting wheels for the car. I wanted to get something that you don't see on every other Mustang...no offense. :p

I came across a guy on SVTP that purchased some Niche wheels, made by MHT Wheels. Searched their site and found 4 in which I favor heavily.

Going to keep the OE diameter of 19", but probably do a staggered width setup of 9"/10". Try to keep the the silver or gun metal color range as well.

What are y'all's thoughts?

Those are all great looking wheels, but I like the Spa

Grandpa 10-09-2012 12:17 AM

The Spa's make my pee pee wiggle. :)

Eaglei532 10-09-2012 12:43 AM

I checked the website, you do have the spa and targa backwards. But my opinion stands, awesome wheels

I was trying to name them from Tapatalk without seeing pics (stupid feature). :disgust:

I uploaded better pics and changed the names to match. :High 5:

Phuck Phace 10-09-2012 04:48 PM

I like the Roma and in that color.

Pewter Lurch 10-09-2012 07:17 PM

Roma or Traga

Started getting back on this thought last night. After going back through and looking at all the option, I really like the Apex wheel they offer in the "Sport" line up. I wanted to stay with 19s, but in order to get an Apex in 19", I would have to custom order a set of monoblock wheels, cut from T6. Don't really feel like dropping $1100/wheel. :eek:

So, I'm going to start saving up for a set of square setup 20x10 +40 of the Apex Sport in silver machined finish, and 275/35/20 fronts 285/35/20 or 295/40/20 rears. Found them for only $285/wheel. Below are a few shots of how they look, in sunlight, and a shot to show the concave of the 20x10.5 version, so the 20x10 should still have a bit of concave to it.

Reminds me of the New Edge Saleen wheels.

Grandpa 12-07-2012 12:57 PM

Hey they are different from the normal wheels! Go for it D.

DirtyD 12-07-2012 12:59 PM

I can see that.

Also, looking more at turka's car on SVTP with the Stance SC-5 wheels, I'm starting to think those look amazing as well, and the Nurburgs are pretty close to them...

But I think going the Apex route will be nice because I haven't seen them on a Mustang yet. I've seen a Camaro, but they look ugly. 20x10 should give me a great stance, and look killer with my BMR springs. I thought about 20x8.5, but that is just too skinny of a tire for me up front.

I've looked at them quite a bit, the M510 that is. After looking it over, I think the spokes are too far apart for my liking. I looked at the Targa more as well, and I don't really feel to crazy about them anymore. I've only seen them in 19" form on a Mustang though, but I want to be different. :)

Jay, can you see want/if you can get the Niche Apex in 20x10 +40 for? Also, Continental ExtremeContact DWS in 275/30/20 and 295/40/20?

jayman33 12-07-2012 02:08 PM

I'll take a look for ya.
