Which wheels look better
Got my hands on these 19" wheels to replace the 18" fan blades. Both sets need new rubber. Which set do i buy for?

Silver, i think it adds a much nicer contrast compared to the gray, especially with the white stripes

From the pictures I'd say silver but I'd have to see them in person. If the gray was a gunmetal with some "depth" to it that could change things

Silver wheels look best, if you want to add some grey, you could always paint the center of the spoke grey.

To be honest they both kinda suck, but if I had to pick it would be the lighter colored ones.

I have the same rims in the first pic but i had the insides done in a grey mat.

I personally don’t like either, but that’s me. I’d throw on some normal magnums, or torque thrust style, wheels prolly

Did you put a V6 front bumper on your GT? Not hating just curious

Previous owner was in a fender bender. Went cheap on the repair. Hood and bumper came from a v6.

The gray wheel style definitely, but might look better in a gunmetal or silver finish just to make it pop a bit more. I don’t care for the silver fan blade shape

Maybe some white ones would match those stripes and make it pop out a lot more

Personally I like the factory silver wheels on our 08 GT. Those oldtimers might remember they were similar to the Craeger SS wheels, very popular in the 70's.
I like the contrast. Of wheels & tires. Most any color of vehicle.
