Need Help Deciding Wheels
Ive got a 2005 torch red GT and need some wheels
My First choice is
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...5&autoModClar=
Second
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...5&autoModClar=
Those are my choices, also if i get a bigger wheel like an 18 or 19 wont i need to retune it so the speedo works right?
Im planing on doing a partial blackout, so i would like to stick to some darker wheels Im not a fan of all black wheels but maybe someone out there knows of a really good looking all black wheel if so please let me know

I like both of your choices, very unique! I would prefer the second, Type 12 wheels if they where going on my car.
My understanding about having to re-tuning the speedo is if your overall tire and wheel height stays the same then no re-tuning of speedo is required. I beleive the stock tire height is ~27in.
For example: Currently I have 235x50x18, this equates to an overall 27.3 inch tire height. I can go with a 285x40x18, which equates to a overall 27.0 inch tire height and I would not have to change the speedo. I could also go with a 255x35x20, which also equates to a 27.0 inch height tire. I hope this helps.

I think it depends on any other appearance modifications you want to do. If you want to keep the car stock looking, go with the Type 12 Machined. If you are adding a body kit, go with the Platinum Saber Machined.
