Default 08 GT/CS rims

During my search for wheels and tires for my 08 GT/CS I was asked a few times if it was a GT/CS. I thought my GT/CS had only cosmetic changes from a base GT.
Is there a different off set for the wheels/tires for the 08 GT/CS ?
Im looking for chrome bullitt style wheels for my 08 GT/CS...................does anyone have any suggestions for staggered OR 9" all the way around ?
Thanx for any info

Wheels are the same...they are probably just plugging the info you tell them into the computer, and GT/CS might be a separate option from GT? I don't know...just a guess.

The one thing you will have to deal with is the TPMS, just make sure they install all that nonsense for you so you don't get error messages thrown on you every time you start the car. I took my wheels off of my 2005 V6 to put on my 2007 GT/CS...and I get errors each time. I'll add the sensors in when I change the tires though.

What size wheels are you looking for? 18s? 20s?

If your looking to do it up right, but spend some money, then I would go staggered (10s in the back), but that's just personal opinion. If you will be going to the strip, then staggered will help you hook, but otherwise, it's just a look preference/small performance difference unless you are going so hard you are losing traction.
