Oxford White Wheel Selection Help
I'm ready to buy a new set of wheels/tires. And I, like many before me, am having trouble deciding which ones would look best on my car.
I've narrowed it down to: 17" staggered chrome FR500s, anthracite FR500s, or 18" staggered Hypercoated FR500s, Black chrome FR500s, or Hypercoated GT4s. If anyone has any opinions or experience with any of these on a white Mach, let me know your thoughts please. I'm also open to other suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Re: Oxford White Wheel Selection Help
Well, I have a totally opposite car in color - but I think the black chrome would look good on a white Mach...

Re: Oxford White Wheel Selection Help
If I get the 18s, will the car look bad without lowering springs?

Re: Oxford White Wheel Selection Help
Do you think it would look worse than stock though, as far as the wheel wells?

Re: Oxford White Wheel Selection Help
like said above. the rims will look ok, but without lowering it, it will not live to its full potential!!

Re: Oxford White Wheel Selection Help
I think 18s would look good with or without lowering it. Sure lowering it wouldn't hurt, but it'd still look sweet IMO.
I have 17s with stock ride height and wish I had 18s. |
