I want new wheels any suggestions?

I have the stock Roush 18" crome wheels that came on the car. I want deep dish wheels but am worried about not being able to rotate my tires if the off set is different. My car is Vista blue with silver stripes so what would look good? Anyways are my wheels worth anything? Thanks for your help

The wheels you PM me about on my car are AMP Wheels. To make a long story short, a buddy of mine has a machine shop that manufacturers a lot of tuner wheels from Japan, he came up with the design for my car, then sold the design to a company called AMP, then they sold their rights to Les Schwab. I wanted the design to be 19" because 20" will take away some of the performance, so they are 19x9.5 19x10.5

I love my Foose wheels and I keep a set of Roush Wheels for track Events.
The only mods you will have to do with most 20"s is wear sun glasses at shows while polishing them(cromes).
If you have the Big Brake Kits with the Foose 20's you will have to run spacers for caliper clearance. I dont have the Roush Big Brake kit but I will be adding this soon(spacers too). As for brakes stock mustang GT are on for now.These clear just fine with no mods.

New Wheels

MY CAR IS ALSO VISTA BLUE,I HAVE FR-500 FORD RACING WHEELS IN POWER COATED SILVER.IT WAS THE ONLY 18" WHEEL THAT WOULD FIT OVER THE ROUSH BRAKES,MAKES THE SILVER STRIPES REALLY STAND OUT.STOCK TIRES FIT ON,NO PROBLEM SO YOU DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ROTATION.

When you sell your wheels, I may be interested if you are local or semi-local to me. Where you from?

Its your ride and for sure do what makes you happy but stick with something Roush. They have several new lines of wheels out. Just a thought.
