Default Chrome or Black Chrome 20' FR500 For 07 Mustang GT

I am set on either chrome or black chrome fr500 20' wheels for my Torch red mustang gt with black stripe down middle and on sides. I just want opinions on strictly looks not how bad the ride quality is going to be or flaking of the chrome. Thank You.

I also have a torch red mustang 06 GT. But im running stock OEM 17" rims, they are black. I think you should go with black 20" FR500s. Thats my opinion if your mustang is torch red.

yeah, Black rims will look better if you have black stripes. I also have a torch red with a red-chrome theme and I'm planning on getting Chrome DD bullit, so it all depends what goes with the look of the car. You can check out my profile for pics

check out the GT4 rims they are stock on the ford gt and are similar to the fr500's. i was also looking at the fr500's but like the look of the gt4's better. also 20's are kind of big. they will make the ride a lot more jarring. try 18's they are a good fit if going for bigger than stock. you have more rubber between the rim and the road and make for a much smoother ride. IMHO
