I know it's a Stang but it will soon be LS1 powered Should I do 18" CCW 3 piece Modular wheels or some 17x6 Bogart RR10's up front with 16x10 in the rear with a MT Drag Radial?

Tough choice, both great looking wheels, I would go with the Bogarts though

Apparently on fordpower.net a guy that posts' brother is the owner of CCW...so you might want to check with him on seeing if you could get a good deal if you choose to go with CCW...

try some relica 03 Cobra Wheels. I like wheels you have but the cobra wheels will give you a nicer look and keep a sleeper look to your car.

I just picked up all the parts needed to give my GT the 03/04 Cobra look. Some guy bought some kind of body kit for his car so he sold me his hood, bumpers, side skirts and side scoops for $800. Now I just need to decide on what wheels to get.

well, i would honestly go w/ the deep dished bullets... so you can keep a stocker look, but have a 10 in wide bullet in the back











hope those help out some

I like the Bullits too but I've seen to many cars with them even with the 10 inchers in the rear. I just want to try and get something that not too many people have. Here are the CCW's I just can't decide between the polished or black centers
