Sorry no one responded yet..
I took pity on this thread and gave u two diff styles..
they are both 18"s. the first set (before most of my mods, excuse me..) are the GT500 chrome replicas, which look sick IMO. But I really like the 18" Polished bullits (2nd pic)
Enjoy.

LOL .. yeah thanks Fredfor responding, i was wondering why nobody responded i started to feel pity for myself never mind the thread ... anyhow... wow great comparison i came to the conclusion that although the GT500 replicas's do look quite sick .. looking at your ride I actually like the polished bullits better.... with your louvers and all it looks much cleaner and stylish IMO... the replica's are cool and aggressive yet seem too busy...IMO... with that said since i already have 17" polished bullits i think i will stick with my wheels and focus on my other mod plans...... sick ride by the way i am actually going fora similarlook .. hope u don't mind.....

Thanks for the compliments.. glad to hear you goin a similar route, I dont mind.. after all, I'm about 3000 miles away.. I dont think anyone will notice if you copy me[8D]
Then again, you arent really copying me.. theres a universal truth that cars with good mods look better and deserve to be emulated.. Im not the first either..
As for your wheels, I think theyd look even better if you got a little drop on em (eibachs?).. theyd look bigger cuz the car wud sit closer to em..
Love the tints.. I got 35% on the drivers and passenger (5% under the louvers).. cuz i didnt want to go through the hassle of paying the inspection station $40 under the table every time.. but I shudda gone darker [&:]

Good luck with your mods! If you got any ?s hit me with a PM.

Wutt in the hell are those!? ^^^

I'm like the most chill person about mods.. but that rim in your first post needs to be melted down and used for something better.. (IMO..)

It looks like a viking shield or something.. def not for a sporty car.. maybe an SUV..


The black and chrome one looks aight..

FYI if you ever want BIG input go to the main board for this kind of feedback. Its viewed much more and with how close the V6 and GT are they wheels can fit on either car.

Chrome bullits, below at the bottom is stock that come with the car, minor change major difference IMO.
