I have bought some STANCE concave wheels Black machined face Chrome lip 20x10 all round .These are from Ozzy wheels and tyres at Hoxton park.They have one of the best showrooms in Sydney.The wheels have just arrived.The big advantage of these wheels as regards fitment goes is that the hubs at this stage are not machined therefore they can be made to any offset.Ozzy will custom fit these to clear Brembos.If I bought these wheels in the states I would have to use 20x9 on front to clear Brembos. this way I can use 20x10 with nice concave on front. $2360 fitted my tyres. Contisport 5P performance tyres close to Mich Pilot sport cup 2 in dry but way better in wet. 275/35/20 front 295/35/20 rear,they are wide,they measure 312 across sidewall to sidewall.I bought them pay 3 get 4,Isaved $450 , $1600 for 4 .I think deal is still on Bob Jane.
Which Stance did you get?

Only downside with Stance, they are about 2 - 3KG heavier per wheel than the TSW equivalent.

Good deal on the tires for sure. I'm still going for Michelin Pilot Super Sport's though :D

They are Stance SC5 (5 spoke) Black machine face.Have a look at stance website there are lots of pictures and videos.I went over to TSW Castle hill and had a close look at their Rotary forged wheels.I decided on stance when I saw them.As for weight I am not going to track the car so unsprung weight not that important to me.Appearance is important and I want to show off those Brembos.Lots of air. Brake dust is another issue .I want wheels that are easy to clean.I clean the wheels on my 67 Mustang every time I take it out (every second day usually).The more intricate the wheel the harder it will be to keep clean.I went for machined also to give the car a different look to the black sport wheels that are now on many makes.Still has black accent and I really like the real chrome lip. Also check out tyre test june MOTOR. Pilot super sports are not fantastic in the wet,hard to beat for dry performance.

I bought a set of gunmetal Bathursts back in April after I saw photographs of them on a Magnetic Mustang on a thread here
They arrived in August.
They cost me $NZ2200 for 19" with 2x9.0, 2 x9.5
Recently Ford NZ started advertising 20" Bathursts as part of an after market mod programme they are promoting with new exhausts , CAI. tunes. Roush upgrades etc

Saw the Mustang Motorsport car at Sinclair Ford last night. They organised a night for their Mustang customers at which they gave a preview of what aftermarket gear they might be offering their customers.

There were reps from:

TSW Wheels ( I spent some time chatting with Anthony about the Bathurst wheels. They look great in the metal.)

Speedy Wheels

X-Force (The Commodore ute sounded meaty.)

Mustang Motorsport.

Stance are made in Taiwan, in case anyone was wondering.

Velgen - China and Taiwan

TSW - South Africa

Vossen - China (according to this one site) Not too sure
