      Which Rushforth Wheels would you pick???

      I am going to order another set of wheels for my 93 Mustang very soon and would like some opinions. I have it narrowed down to 3 different Rushforth styles. The battery , Livewire and Trooper are the ones I am thinking about. They will be 18x7 and 18x9 staggered fitment. I am open to other styles too, even a mesh style . I was very impressed with some of the Rushforths I saw on the Power Tour, so I think I need a set! So what would the people of Pro-Touring pick ????

      battery with black centers and polished hoops. The black centers would looks good with the black mirrors and all the black around the windows. Either of the 3 you picked would look good on the car.

      My vote is for the Battery if you go with a spoke style. Dark centers w/polished or brushed lip. You also mentioned a mesh. My favorite wheel of all (and on my Firebird) is the BOZE "pro-touring". I really like a mesh style myself, but I think any of the choices you mentioned would look great.

      BTW, nice car, I have the coupe bug too. Kept this one mostly stock for a change !

      Thanks for narrowing your wheel choice down to us! Very flattered, let alone to have you split on 3 of our designs. I have to vote dark centered battery too. Let us know when you're ready to order and we'll get you set up.

      They will be full polished. I put a set of my buddies Iforged on it with graphite centers and hated it. This color is way to bright in person for dark wheels in my opinion.

      I think a photo chop is needed. I would do it for you, but I don't have it! I think that black centered wheels with polished or chrome hoops would look awesome on your car since your car is devoid of chrome and has black accents like the mirrors and window trim.

      I like your choices, any one of those will look good.
      I'll throw this one out there, I think these would look great with the centers in a dark graphite.

      Livewire would be a different look for this car. battery are similar to the SVT Cobra style and the Boyd GT (pictured above) looks very similar to the Shelby Redline style. Both of which are popular pics for your car already.

      Have you considered the NewGen Chamber or Slide. I think the modern styling of these wheels would look really awesome on your car.

      Personally, Im leaning towards the Battery for my Ford. Then again, I think I've changed 9 times this year already.

      I really think a brushed and cleared wheel center with polished lips would look amazing... especially in the battery style. Can't you stuff a wider wheel up front than a x7?

      I could put 9s under the front but I like the look of a narrower front wheel. 8s would be the widest I would go. Also, for as low as the car is I want no rubbing issues. I am going to adjust the suspension to be as low as possible with no clearance issues , so the tires will be nicely up in the wheel well
