MustangMissy Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Anybody else out there hate the wheels? I don't care how long I spend cleaning them, they look like I have not cleaned them in months first time out. I want to replace the wheels, just don't know which ones yet. So many choices. I never really liked the look of them either. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Alcoa wheels ( http://forum.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=27182 ) look great although a little pricey. When you decide, remember we want to see pic's.

jcthorne Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Guess I am the odd opinion then. I LIKE the GT500 wheel and after seeing the real KR wheel in 18", cant stand it. Would not have it on my car. I do think the stock GT500 wheel needs a little bling on some of the darker colors......like mine so.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice and it allows you to stay with 18" wheels. I am still not sure what I want in the long run but I did buy a set of stock wheels and tires from a GT500 owner to put on my SGT so I can fit big brakes. Do you have any photos of the wheels on your car? If so, and when you have time, could you e-mail me at clark17357@aol.com? Thanks. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are concerned about the dirty look, it is the brake pad compound and we all have it. You can purchase replacement pads that drastically reduce the amount of brake dust.
