I think what I like about this look is that it's really clean. It's easy to go overkill on chrome because it is, by nature, flashy. The FSVT rims look really good in chrome because they're not overly "in your face" chrome.

I'll always picture egplnt with GF-1s, because I just love the look of the rim (especially on a dark car), and because I'm biased toward them, but I think you've made a really good addition to your car.
 
Oops EuroTour has 18" supper's lying around in rough shape. Bet he would have givena sweet deal on 2 of them for the trailer. Oh well.
 
same can be said for many things. I for one like focus wheels on contours no matter how much they are played out, they are a tried and true wheel. I have cobra r's on my stang and like them, always did and I hear it from people every now and then ( I also get tons of thumbs up and the car has won trophies on the flip side)but hey same can be said for fox stangs with bullitts, pony r's and welds. these are wheels that are getting well played but still look damn good, although same caint be said for the over played large cowl hoods on stock or mild motor stangs IMHO.

Dont mean to hijack the thread...but now you gone and done it. Dont be dissing cowl hoods on Fox Stangs.....I got a 79' Notch with a wicked Windsor and actually needs the room! lol I am just razzin ya so you know man....no harm no foul. Oh and yes I have Weld draglites for the time being....Alumastar 2.0s and 5 lugs soon for the minitub!

Back on topic....

Joe...they look nice....I am just liking the thought of Black Chrome powdered 18" OZ's!! :drool: And I got used to seeing the egg with the GF-1's. But thats why I LOVE my 15lb. Rev Model X 17" wheels...they got some sidewall to them...still hurts a tad sometimes....but not like 18's.....so I understand on your decision.
 
I have the OZs for sale, so maybe one of you should buy them, then have them powdercoated black chrome, and then your dreams will become reality! :)

LOL. It's not really off topic but the cowl hood is kinda. The meaning behind the post is for posers who plop big cowl hoods or really anything over 2" on them on a stock motor, if it needs the clearance then duh or at the very least have some nut under the hood to back it.. on a side note my friends track car has a 4" man i couldn't see using that on teh street cain't see over it.

peace
 
I liked the GF-1s. Not many Contours can pull those wheels off. Oh well :(. SVT chromies are snazzy too though
 
Nope, mine!

:laugh:

I think I am going to bump up to 10mm spacers though :ponder: :D
 
stop slacking... I took that pic yesterday lower front mesh fell out cuz of too fast for condition speeds :) binder clips cant hold anything. Still have the mesh thankfully.

Im going to put the centerline storms on there this weekend.
