I couldn't figure out anything else besides the non option wheels as well, so I just painted my calipers orange to match and left the factory option wheels on there...
being lowered, IMO it looks great

I personally keep in mind the fact that this is a "modern" car, not a "1960's" car, with all the technological advantages of a "modern" car. In reality, I really don't want my car to look just like a "1960's version" of the car. I add items and make changes to my car that are in the "spirit" and "pay tribute" to the 1960's car, but use "modern" technology to achieve that aim. In my opinion that is exactly what the stock wheels do. The guys that have taken those wheels and painted them have achieved that exact goal. It has a "spinner" that is an original Ford product that meets the design guidelines of being sized appropriately for the car with a "modern" flair to it. I am always looking at other options, but I have yet to be convinced that someone will be able to do it better when you consider all the factors involved. The stock wheels that came with our cars are pretty bitchin when painted up, and please show me a better looking stock wheel ever mounted on any car that looked better than this? We are damn lucky they look this good. I am beginning to believe that we have had the best wheels right in front of our noses all this time. At some point I will likely paint a set for my car too.
Could the guys who have painted their stock wheels please post a photo, or direct me. I would like to see what others have done (Heritage variety). Thanks.
Ok, that does it ... I'm going to need a set of stock wheels. Suggestions on where to get them?
Here are some pics. on my Heritage compliments of Floridaho Chris.
Midnight Blu.. do you have any more pics???
Here is the side view with the bumper delete... starting to envision orange wheels on there :biggrin

They probably didn't sell with the car because the Buyer didn't want them. My guess is the spinners on the front wheels protrude beyond the fender. Thankfully there is only one set in existence. :cheers
The Painted Stock Wheels Look Awesome.
They looked better suited for FGT rebody of a Fiero.
