Default 2007-2009 GT500 rims and tires on a 11 GT?

Would 07-09 GT500 rims and tires look good on a 11 GT? I cant believe Ford has them coming from the factory with a 235mm width with all this power.

My understanding is that 05-11 all share the same wheel pattern...and that it won't change until around 2013 (<-- that part is still a rumor though)

That pic looks great! The reason I ask is that I am thinking about trading in my 05 for a 11. Im not too crazy about the stock 18's and the bicycle thin rubber that comes with it so I am thinking about if I get it having the dealer swap out the wheels.

Soldier is right...
Same cars basically (body shell wise), so you can interchange those rims.

I think you'd be an original...I hear about a lot of people putting the 10-11 rims on the 05-09, but not the other way around. If you already have the wheels/tires, if would definately be a cheaper alternative.

18's are 235 and 19's are 255.
