If you plan on leaving the chrome up front, the old wheels looked better. If you plan on color matching, the new wheels look better.

I can't get over those mirrors. Those things are tiny! Gonna make it hard to see all those Fords you pass...

Theyre in the man cave. I think they're 18x8 or 8.5 but not 100% sure

Both wheels are nice but it nees a drop. Tiny tires make it look weird.
