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

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

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.
