Re: Fr500 rims, can't make my mind up

I too have a UA, and you won't find too many with black FR's on a black Mach. Most prefer chrome or black chrome, or whatever. I did a poll on this a long time ago, most don't like black on black. I personally love it. Not full black like a 04 Cobra rim, black/polished lip it what I love and will get. But I am still searching for a lightweight wheel that is black/polished lip that is not over $1k a wheel, that is not on every Mustang out there. Hard to do. Those FR's plus added tire weight = more rotational mass = not what I want. Not that I will ever autoX, or that I currently drag (will hopefully soon), but added weight = bad, and is a concern of mine. Most don't care about the added rotational mass either.
