Default Black wheels on a 2010-11.

I'm having difficulty deciding on what rims to get for my black 2011, one set that i've found are the SVE cobra 18" 9/10 staggered black wheel set from Latemodelrestoration, I just can't decide on if these would look small on the car, my GT is dropped with the roush extreme kit, 1" up front ant 1.25 in the rear, so not so much wheel gap. I've been juggling between the 19" RTR's the black GT500 rims in 18/19" from american muscle or the SVE's, any opinions would be welcome.

Personally I like the genuine GT500 wheels. Late model resto sells the genuine thing with tires too. They are 9.5 inches wide which is the best width imo cause it gives you a wider selection of tire sizes

I considered the black FRPP wheels but everytime I would look at them I would say to myself, shouldve got the damn brembo package for the same price and been done with it lol, shooting for the RTR's but they are out of stock until late march.

Lost patience and ordered the black oem replicas from american muscle, http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-foru...x10s-rear.html sold me on them. Should I expect to get raped for wanting to transfer stock front/new rear tires and tpms to new wheels. So many scumbag shops up here that jack up the price when you say you have a mustang and want something installed.
