i've always thought the '04 SVT wheels were really ugly, but i'll be damned if the Euro package wheels aren't some of the sweetest ever cast...

The 04's would look SWEET on your car. I think they would look really agressive. Maybe buy them and get them powdercoated a custom color (dark gunmetal) before you mount them?

I typically don't like either. But if I had to go one, it would be the EAPs.

But as my dad has said about Camaros and Mustangs, they are just like assholes. Everyones gottem.(referring to the EAPs)

Yeah thats the bad thing about EAP's... everyone got em. But I guess if you did custom powdercoat them that'll look sweet.

Thats why I like mine. Not alot of people have black ones. Let alone with a red stripe. They are unique now, or alteast for another 10min untill someone else does it. :roll:

I like both, The six spoke look better on a car than they do in pics.

Tire size? 215-45-17 is the stock SVT size which gives a decent ride and nice handling but you would have to recalibrate your speede.

If you do a 205-40-17 you won't have to recal the speedo but they are really rough riding.
