They are a bit deeper off-set than I would like to see on an 8" wheel for your ride. I didn't read down to the bolt pattern info, so MUST confirm that they are 5x4.5" or 5x114.3" to fit your ride.

Your current wheels should be 8" and would expect these to probably sit nearly 1/2" deeper under the car due to the off-set (don't know what OEM off-set is for sure, but probably nearer to +30mm). I think these wheels will end up looking "thinner" on your ride, even though they are not.

As for price, I have no idea what these particular wheels are worth but not that much, IMO. I tend to think of universal fit wheels as cutting corners by the manufacturer, sorry

hey jazzer, do you know if wheels from 04 will work on my 05 gt, such as these http://reno.craigslist.org/pts/1422155638.html? Thanks!

There you are, just answered your other post

If those wheels are truly stock dimensions, they will fit fine. They will be a bit more outward than your current ones, so will give a wider appearance, even though they are not (still not sure if you have 8.5" wheels on your ride as appearantly some S197 Bullits are)
