Any Ideas?

[Young_Lime_S197_GT]

I have a 2006 Legend Lime GT with 5 speed auto. It's stock with the exception of a few body mods and new FRPP mufflers off a 2007 GT500...I plan on doing eleanor body kit, bbk headers, custom side exit exhaust, 6 speed auto with a tci ratchet race/street shifter, custom interior, halo headlights and fog lights, FRPP 3V manifold, and after I get a SCT SF3 tuner I will add my C&L "Racer" Cold Air Intake, I am at a stalemate here I wanna go with 18" or 19" rims but don't know what will look awesome...any ideas would be appreciated, please no negative comments, I know an automatic isn't the preferred trans but this is my grad present.

Pick the wheels you like first, then you can see what sizes they come in. The wheels i like only come in 19's. So check first.

I like the Roush 18 inch by 10 wide..

If you're going to go with an eleanor kit I would definitely recommend 20's, as the body will have a "heavy" look to it. Also, do you plan on lowering it any at all?

i agree compeletly with above... and 22" actually work with that kit and i don't like 22" usually.

I used to have the stock 18's with the kit and I thought that they looked tiny. My Saleen 20's look perfect imo.

the guy i bought the procharger kit used from this site had the elanor kit with 22"s and it worked great. i hate 22"s and i hate the elanor kit but i would have bought his car.... yes, it looked that good. i'll see if i can get him to post pics.

Nothing wrong with an auto trans, keep your head up. Research that side exit exhaust, I remember reading about clearence issues as it sits so low.

oh, the auto trans is great. i have an auto in the roush and drive the snot out of it.... put 4k miles on it in 5 weeks.

Ok thanks guys, I am thinking about the Shelby Alcoa 20x9 all the way around...I plan to lower it 3/4" up front and 1.25" in the rear...probably going to go with light gold Eleanor stripes and what I mean by custom exhaust is when I get the side exit from Cervini's cutting their mufflers off and adding the flowmaster super 40's I recieved from my uncle for graduation....anyone know if the BBK longtube stainless headers will work with the side exhaust or will I need to go with the shorty headers and I wanna put a lighter driveshaft in...what should I go with?

Oh yeah I put some pics on here of my car in its current state.

Long Tubes will absolutely work with the side exhaust.
