Default Help New Mustang Looking For Some Rim Ideas

I just bought my 2002 V6 Mustang 3weeks Ago. Am looking at putting some black rims on it but i don't know if it will match with the tan Rocker Stripes on the side panel. Any Ideas on what rims i could go wit instead or do you think blacking out the car will be a good look? Also take in mind since then the car has 20% tint

Try black Bullit's, I think they will go well with your tan stripes

thanks fobra 559 i was looking at some bullits....My friend has a 2002 cobra and he told me my stock rims looks pretty nice. He told me i should look into painting mine black i thought that was a little ricey. He did it on his cobra has a real nice finish what do you think?

There is nothing wrong with powercoating your rims, they look just as nice if you were to get them new. Just be sure you have a reputable shop paint them.

honestly, i think black wheels would look great with your tan stripes; because then your car would be blacked out with that tan accent(kinda like a Shelby GT-H). and in most cases, painting factory rims is pretty ricey, but you have a 17" normal good looking 5-spoke wheel, so i think it'd work out. and if you think it'd look good, then there's your answer.

Lol, exactly what I was thinking when I saw his car. The tan side stripes remind me of the Shelby GT-H. I would go for Black Bullits, but that's just me.

good choice but be sure to get the glossey ones becuase i think a flat black would just make your car look dirty
