Default wheel suggestions for my 08 vapor GT

i was originally looking at gray foose legend wheels, or nitrous...but the price of them is just in the stratosphere, by principle alone i wont pay 300+ per rim.

now im looking at gray shelby razors (190/each on AM) or black bullitt's with chrome lips...

opinions on those two for my car? other suggestions?

you dont have to go that far dude! just lookin for some opinions is all.

if you really want to though, what angles do you need? if i dont have an angle i can always go outside and take a pic...it'll be a dirty one though, i dont wash it much in the long island winters.

only other recent pic i already got-

I'm especially partial to DD Black Bullits. I haven't seen a color they don't look good on AND they can be had fairly cheap.

Mostly i try to find a picture at a simliar angle, post a couple pictures of cars with the other rims you want. I rotate the picture till it looks good, sometimes have to swash the picture to get the rims to look the same diameter.

I think these would look great with that black racing stripe.

mike, foose rims i LOVE, but they are just way too freakin expensive. 300 bucks a rim is just insane, i wont pay that in principle. besides i want 18's, and nobody sells the legend in gray in 18's....cheapest place i found was 320 bucks EACH....EFFF THAT!!
that being said, thanks for the suggestion though, your right they would look badass!!

If you're looking for black, then check out the wheel packages at American Muscle. They have the 2010 GT and GT500 wheels in black... they have great prices as well.
