Thanks Preston....I really like them. I have been waiting for quite some time now. The wife finally caved in 
The fact that people continue to call them Mustang wheels really doesn't bother me. If they look good, which they do in my opinion, rock'em. Is it any different than putting Vette wheels on an F-body? The wheels are made by American Racing...not Ford

It only cost a little more to go first class people!! Yall don't be so sensitive about it & get your panties all ruffled.

I think your wheels look kick ***! They match perfectly.
To those that say they are Mustang wheels, those guys are just idiots. The design is inspired by Cragar S/S and early Torque Thrust styling, and didn't appear on a Mustang until the late 90's. Maybe these idiots are just showing their young age or lack of knowledge on ponycar heritage. In fact, these wheels can also be compared to early '70s CAMARO wheels. Pics of a '73 Z28 attached. Yes, we all know that the Bullitt Mustang and late model Mustangs have similar styled wheels, but they aren't "Mustang" wheels. They are retro style wheels, and Ford was just smart enough to include them.

I really wish Ford wouldn't have ripped the TT design from AR, but all I can think of when I see those wheels is "damn Mustang wheels." It sucks because it was such a classic design that Ford made insanely popular on the Mustang.
That deep dish looks good in the back, bro.
