I have a 2010 silver GT. I just cant decide on the best wheel to run. I am sticking with 18s ( x 9"an 10") and will run 255s and 305s 555s. I was thinking of Racestars 15x10s and 17x? . But that was before I came into a Roush stage 3 suspension.
I thought of a wheel with a black center and chrome lip. But the first person I ran it by shot it down. I know my car my choice but I respect your guys opinion.
I would be under $200 a rim. Thanks guys

OEwheels LLC would be a choice, I had them on my 2010 silver.

It is tough..I saw a car with all black and didnt really like the look. But I do not want a big gaudy chrome rim that make it look like a pimp mobile

I'm going with race stars next week most likely.

Well I might end up there..lol. I wish I would not of ruined a tire because that really killed my plan . I got a great deal on some NITTOs 255s so I bought them. I am going to run them with 235 fronts for now. I am not sure if I could sell my stock wheels with 235s and 255s and get anything for them.
I have also considered buying 2 18x10 2010gt replica rims and put them on the back and slap some 305s on it. With the Roush stage 3 dropping me a inch and I thought of installing a roush wing on it. Keeping the car a little sleeper stock with a little mod sprinkled in.

Well I'm in a very slow process of making my car into a strip car. I'm looking for 11's NA and once its paid off I got big plans.

You know, I'll admit I am either old, out of touch, or both...but black rims remind me of the 70s and cars that the hub caps had fallen off of.

I say go with the racestars, but I'm biased:

It would be hard to live with the car being that low for daily though...I will probably try it for awhile anyhow. Like you I've looked at the 18x10 2010 OEM replicas with a 305 nitto DR but they are just so damn heavy. Would be cool for the sleeper look though.

Those AMR wheels look great, are cheap, and are lighter than the 2010 oem replicas they sell. Bummer they are out of stock till next month though
