    I didn't realize I had made them so huge. Overlook that, please. :slug:

          I sorta like the black bullitts. But your car being sky blue, I think the polished is the best way to go.

            I second that. The painted ones will scratch over time. The polished will be easier to keep looking like new.

            Are you getting the aftermarket deep dish ones or the ones from Ford?

              I'll probably get the ones from Ford. I haven't researched them a lot yet, is there an advantage to going aftermarket instead of stock?

                Not really. I wouldn't say advantage or disadvantage. Just that they might be cheaper and the look. The finish might be different. Even the offset will be different. One might fit better than the other. Neither were meant to fit our cars primarily.

                  Which would be better to use? How is the Mustang wheel fitment on the GM's?

                    You should have no problems since you have an '03.

                      The Marauder guys were looking into '05 Mustang wheels too. The Marauder and all other '03+ Panthers should have a 50 offset wheel. The '05 Mustang is around 38 or 40 offset. So the wheel would only stick out about a half inch more.

                        I don't know man but none of these wheels will match with that Panther but it's my opinion, you're the one who take the decision. :thumbsup:

                          Everyone is free to post their suggestions for another wheel. I haven't committed to anything yet. I was thinking these might look good, but I'm not sold on any of them myself.

                            Personally i cannot stand the Bullit wheels with the painted centers. Mostly since about 75% of the Mustangs around here have them. they are even less original than a fucking Elenor clone. I like the Polished ones, they look bad ass on a 98+

                              You need a set of wheels like BK_Grand_Marquis. What wheels and tires does he have for his car?
