What color is your Gt?

What color is your Gt?

Im not sure what the actual color is called but it is the same color as yours.

Did you need wheel spacers or anything else to get them to fit? Or do you just bolt them right up?

[NateSVT]

They should bolt right up. When I had my 03 GT I threw my 17x10.5 Cobra Replicas with 315s on the back without spacers and had no issues.

Mines Dark Shadow Grey, I'm torn on wheels myself.

i got a set of saleens for sale, 17x9 235/45/17 fronts and 18x10 274/45/18 rears mint condition year old with nitto 555 tires...pm for more info...that goes for anyone on here

[2000GT]

I have them on my car. I LOVE the look. It totally transfered the look of my car. I have the Sumithomos (sp?) all the way around. If you are not going to drag race it, that is the way to go. Those tires are much cheaper than the DRs.

[40thGT]

I have the bullit rims on my car already. I love the look. I need rear tires for inspection next month and the rear wheels are pretty scratched up so I figure no time better than now to get the 17x10.5 in the rear. Im only going to be driving it on nice days now that I bought a truck. So Im leaning towards getting the ET streets but Im looking for opinions on tires.

[2000GT]

Even though AM claims the color of the 10.5 rims match the stock ones, they DO NOT. Trust me I know. I had to buy front rims just to get them to match perfectly. Plus the finish on the aftermarket ones are different (better in my opinion).

[2000GT]

BTW, they bolt right up with no issues. Spacers are not needed.

[Black87GT]

IMHO Go with something else, these rims are so played out its not even funny, i swear every 2v GT i see has these rims.

[ccoyle0103]

Cruizinconceptswholesale.com has good deals on wheels. They even have the Godspeed wheels that look awesome on Gt's. You will not need spacers on your wheels to run wider and you can even run 315 on the rears and 275 on the fronts. Below is the Godspeeds on a car like mine...

Agreed x 1000. Look something unique, it will really set the car off. I did it and couldn't be happier(except for buying tires lol). Do not buy 19" wheels, tires are stupid expensive.

I've seen that in the reviews that they dont match. How far off are they from the stock ones?

[2000GT]

It depends on the year. I had ones off of a 2001 GT. they were a shade darker. It almost looked like there was brake dust on the fronts (even though there wasn't). I think the 02-03's were lighter.
