Here's a set on a car in Australia:
Nice! Looks awesome.

On a side note, I can just hear the bloke in the first picture saying G'day mate! :D

I love the Bathurst in silver...but, after seeing those pics I'm inclined to go with 19s. Something about the silver wheel looks so tall. IMO, of course.

Makes sense, the spokes on the 20" are longer than the 19"s, which probably makes the wheel look more stretched out and taller as you mention.
TSW offers a 19x9/9.5 setup which fits perfect!

I just can't make up my mind. The photos that have been posted here all look terrific, but then there are these:





:barf:
Likely because cars in the pics are unlowered, and those are the semi concave fronts so its not QUITE as nice as the deep concave rears.
The GT PP cant fit a 19x9.5 in the front, but centercaps wont fit without a spacer.

No, that's not it, it's the two-tone finish. In the pics I attached, the spokes look awkwardly-thin because only the faces are machined, and the silver paint is too far off from machined aluminum, so it looks terrible.

In all the other pics here, they look great, so it must be dependent upon the way they get lit.

Ha! Those aren't the best pics but they aren't bad. I'm just so tired of black/dark wheels.

This looks pretty sweet, looks like the same car as above only from this angle the 20s look better.:shrug:

I think it just may be those are crappy internet low-res pics. I can't find the ones that Jason posted that were really nice, just showing the wheel, not on a car but it looked great.

Until recently, the majority of pics of the stock silver wheels I'm getting looked like crap and had me thinking I'd have to go aftermarket immediately but now that I've seen some good, high-quality ones, I may just get spacers...for now at least. These are square 19x9's, the rear 9.5s on the US GT/PP should look even better (I am dreading cleaning these, though):

If you dig up the thread with the first Mustang to get the dark gray Bathursts, which was a Magnetic gray car, you'll see that this wheel in 20" is really an outstanding look. That car is spot on.

I definitely like the 20s with the dark gray ones, but on the fence with the silvers. Strange that they look so different in terms of "presence". The pic that Jason posted is 42 on this thread but I'm sure you've seen it. I agree more mounted pics are what we need but with the current fascination with dark wheels, may not be a lot of those.

Seems to be the case- one of the vendors said the silver ones are not moving.

I'm no photographer, and I took these in a hurry, but I just put on my gunmetal 20in bathursts. The angle is to show off the concavity. Also, car is on stock springs right now.

I'll get some more pics this weekend when I got some time.
