they look pretty good, meatier than the bullits, not as much as the fanblades, apparantely theyr pretty light. Did NOT know they were only 8" wide. That sucks, How wide a tire can be ran on that, max 235?
245s will fit on there.

I'd say 255/45/18 is the widest you'd want to go.

Does anybody know what the width of my wheels are?

Hmm, not big on the idea of driving with the six banger rims but does anyone have any pics. The guy wants under 1000 with tires and tax.
Everybody knows that GT rims add at least 20 rwhp!

I'm like em. I think they look like Hot Wheels wheels.

I have seen them on many V6s at the dealership with the
flat black spoilers, hood scoops and side vents. They have
3 of them all with those rims OEM from the factory at my
local stealership.
I could get pics if you really want them that bad.
They really dont look good with the OEM sized tires
but maybe better with bigger, taller tires?

If this comes off as sounding really snobby, forgive me.

I know the GT has differences where it counts most but am I the only GT owner that's a little botheredby howthenew V6 (he linked) looks just like a GT?

I disagree. The GT is lower and has a different body.

That does sound snobby, but I forgive you.

To answer your question; yes, you're the only one.
