Hey guys I have a light silver 2005 mustang that I am trying to find some wheels for. This is a daily driver so I don't want to spend an insane amount of money on them. Anybody see a wheel that looks good to you on these mustangs or have a mustang that you put wheels on. I am having a hard time deciding and thought I might post this to get some inspiration

Not sure what you consider an insane amount of money but we have a nice wheel for the price that is available in any diameter you need to give your Mustang the right look and set it apart from stock. If we can improve the looks of this Shelby, imagine what we can do to a GT!

I saw that shelby in previous posts and love the look of that wheel. I may end up with Rushforths but I was trying to keep cost below 1500. Just a thought but the stock wheels I have look similar to the super spoke. How do you think those would look? Hard to beat those rated X's though.

Thanks! Picking a favorite is a tough one but I think the Rated-X looks killer on most anything!

I absolutely love the look of black mesh-style wheels with a silver outer rim. Such wheels are common from Fikse (FM10's) and BBS, but they cost an arm and a leg. Since you have a Ford 114.3 mm bolt pattern, you have some Japanese wheel options as well (that may or may not need some spacers.)

Here's an example from the Koni Challenge series . . . though I love the way such wheels look on just about anything.

Now if only someone would make affordable (less than 275 dollars per wheel) mesh style wheels in muscle car sizes. The closest thing we have right now are the Boze wheels as seen on the Torino in the Fast and the Furious movie.

I seriously considered buying these ADR's and using adapters, but they just weren't available in the widths I needed (17" wheels only come available in 7.5" wide and 18" at 8.5" wide)
