I thought the same thing but 16s don't fit the GT and I've never heard of any steel 17s with the proper offset for the GT.

Newman is right. I snagged some cheap takeoffs for my winter tires. More options in 17" also.
and they are great in the summer to slap my drag radials on.
Thank god I work at a tire/auto shop myself, I change my tires like you change underwear.

The 245/45 looks a little small on there imo.

Don't worry Rainson, the snow is on the way! You may get a chance to try those new tires out in the morning according to the weather report here.
