Why would you want new ones? Yours are cool too. Are they 18's? Maybe I'd be interested in them this summer since we both are at least in Indiana.

Yeah, mine are 18's as well. I won't be getting new wheels. At least not for this car! *cough*Mustang*cough* lol I'm happy with what I have, but I just think those AR's are really badass!

Thats a great deal on that Ebay auction, they are 176 per wheel at Tirerack and that doesnt include lugs or shipping. Wish I had the funds. I think they woould look good on my car. I do go back to work after 4 months off this Monday. So maybe I will run into some $$$, buy your Powerball tickets for tonight and Mega for Friday. High$$$$$

Mike, I understand about the thin look, but they would also make my calipers look even better, IMO

thanks for the voting everyone, I'm still un-decided at this point....

Just to clarify things, the wheels on the car are kinda pitted around the outer silver ring (clear coat), close up they don't look very good either. I agree they do look pretty nice and when I first started here at the MCF I had no clue what kinda wheels they were until I asked. Amy (awesomess) told me they were mustang style wheels and I kinda got turned off of them, but after a few comments on them I did start to like them! Since they aren't in that great of shape and they have winter only tires mounted on them, that is all they will be used for! I want a kinda different look, I've been told to keep some black on my new set of wheel because that will look pretty good with my new powder coated calipers....
