I've been wanting to get some rims that not every mustang owner has.. ie: bullits and fr500s..

a local guy has these and a test fitted them and took pics. too big? ugly?

I think they are too big for the car....they probably wouldnt look terrible on an S197 or something....but imho they are kind of ugly in general no matter the size....your car is nice and they do nothing to compliment it, just take away from the overall appearance.

I like them from 10 feet away. Up close, not so much. I do like the size and color also though

They dont look hideous. i would rather have those cobra spider wheels if it were me. also, is it just me or should the front hubs be away from the car further?

I hate most wheels that has those stupid rivets and I don't think that size wheel looks horrible on that stang. Find a different wheel in that size and I think it would look great. no rivets though.
