I had these wheels made by Centerline. I like them because (IMO) they're a modern interpretation of the original spoke wheels. A little old, and a little new. The center caps come as polished alum, and I applied the "red chrome" at home. They fit well in place of the standard Mustang wheels, but because the face os convex, they have a deep dish look.

From what I understand Joe you can get the knockoffs in 15 or 17x9 (all 4) or 17x9 (2) 17x10.5 (2) a lot of the build threads are showing this latter option so you can run 17x40r265 and 17x35r315 size tires they are offered by FFR in the parts catalouge

Don't know the back spacing/offset details - they are stock mustang replacements from www.oewheelsllc.com

Mustang Bullitt Replica wheesl from Factory Five 17 x 9 & 17x 10.5. Perfect fit for my 3 link build.
IMHO 18's just don't look right on a Roadster.
17" Halibrand-alikes. Powdercoated Flat Black(like the old racing magnesium rims)
