Some better pics of my new Raceline GT wheels - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Some better pics of my Mustang with the new Raceline GT wheels... which still ain't grown on me. They look great, but are not my style, is all. I plan on selling them.

17x8 front, 17x10 rear

Let the bling begin!

Some folks think they look a little small, but I think that has to do with the not-so-impressive drop. Here's a Photoshop of about an inch drop...

Car looks great.

i dunno bro, they look good dont get me wrong, but to me they would look better if they were 18's. Ive gotten so used to seeing 18's on 99+ it looks odd to me now when i see 17's on a 99+

Not my favorite wheel but they look nice on your car. Good job. :THUMBSUP:

245/45/17 Nitto 555 up front
315/35/17 Nitto 555R in the rear (drag radials)

I've always liked Nittos. Some of the best looking tread, in my opinion.

I think the wheels look nice. I think the overall car would look nicer if you had the Mach1 grill delete instead of that chrome grill. To me the rims don't say bling bling, the grill does. I think you should try that before you sell the wheels. Just my opinion. Happy modding.

I agree with pic18 on the grille. The grill delete would help remove that bling factor. Other than that its not too bad. The photochop did look alot better. My .02

Yeah, I hear ya. I plan on getting a shaker system installed, at which point I'll get the grille delete. That is a way down the road, so first things first.

Sell these wheels. Get some different ones. Then the shaker and grille delete.

not to be the ******* here but they dont do anything for me or your car shop some more.

I think they look great on your car. Matter a fact, I think those "spinners" would probably look good on your setup.

However, the rear shot of the car is wicked mean!!
