Pretty sure it's on air bags. Seen it online in various blogs over the last year or two.

Ford Mustang RTR

i think the color is gunmetal, not sure. the wheel shown above was only just recently introduced and i do not see it listed on the rtr website. best if you contact them and ask.

if you go to the websites i posted above, there are companies that sponsor those sites and have discounts, which could end up being cheaper than buying direct.

seller names to look out for are american muscle, cjponyparts, summit racing, and so on.

what you can do is try to find a thread like this:

Official: 2011+ Mustangs Wheel and Tire thread

i know it's not s550 but it's a starting point.

another thing i should mention: i don't know what brakes your s550 came with. if it's brembo, your choices may become a little limited because of caliper clearance... or at least it was for me with my old 2011.

I put TE's on all my cars in Gran Turismo. All of them. Put them on while you go for that free hp oil change at the beginning.

And eventually all my IRL cars too..

if polished, get something that has some sort of protective coating because if you are a daily driver you are going to be polishing them more than driving...
