Wheel Selection Help

[Jfunk]

Hey everyone I'm trying to decide on what wheel to go with on my build. I want 18" all black and keep the vintage Shelby look with the knock offs. I was thinking, to save cost, of getting the wheels Factory Five provide and having them powder coated in satin or gloss black, would this be a good idea? It seems all the other aftermarket are pretty expensive or don't come in all black. Also I've been reading that putting a 1" spacer in the back is the way to go to give the car a more aggessive stance? Any down falls to this logic? Would I want to put a spacer in the fronts as well, and how big? Attached is an example of what I'm looking for.

I had my rims powder coated gloss black. Here's what they look like with the spinners on:

JFunk,

I went with a non-forum vendor who provides the wheels already powder coated. Mine are a satin finish and I really think they look good with the tires I chose. As far as looks, I personally wouldn't want the tire to stick out too much more. The rear tire has more of a 'lip' than the front (as you can see in the pictures), which already makes is seem more 'aggressive'.

While they're not in the picture, the knock-offs are the same as the rims.

Those look fantastic, can I ask where you got them from and the specs?

Look great! Those are wheels that came with the kit? Can I ask how much?

Yes, these are the wheels that came with the kit. If you're asking how much it cost to have them powder coated black, it was ~$500.
