looking for bullet or cobra etc rims
 
Im looking for OEM or aftermarket bullet rims, or cobras (96-04) I might also be interested in FRPP or something along those lines.
Must be 17 inch and I rather no tires but might buy with tires is price is right.

I am thinking of new rims and tires for the 05gt but have no idea what they (The 05gt stock rims/tires) will fetch. They have 2125 VERY EASY kms, and 22 coats of polish/wax on them.

sorry, the rims off an 05 wont fit pre 05 properly because of the offset.

yeah, Im surprised they didnt use the left over bullet and GT rims off the 99-04 like they did off the 01 cobras onto the GT's

Also I think its totaly gay how the tires are 235 :banghead:

If I ever bought an 05 first thing would be rims deffinetly.

Next spring 285/40/18's out back 255/45/18's up front. That should change the look. Oh and lower the sucker 1 1/2 inches :tup

Hey I got a set of 17" Cobra Rims off a 1998, they've been refinished and painted silver with a pony center cap. I have tires on them now, but am willing to separate if you really want. Yokohama AVS ES100 245/45/ZR17 Brand New only driven home from shop 20Km Then stored. Make me an offer...

Because it's a whole new car underneath. The hubs and brakes ended up out farther in relation to the bodywork with the new suspension geometry, so wheels with more positive offset are required.
