Haven't seen these yet. Nothing crazy, just Shelby CS40s. I spent an hour removing all 100 fake platichromed rivets.

I like this look. Nice looking car. I've always had a thing for white cars. I think it goes back to my love of Thunderbolts.

Really? That's very interesting. So how did you remove them? Can you tell they were ever there?

I removed them with a 6" extension and a torx bit, I think a T45 or something close to that.

Sure you can still see the black holes where they used to be. But when the wheels are clean you can barely tell, even when you're 2-3 feet away.

Gangster.

I haven't seen too many 05-09 GTs with the 19" Brembo wheels from the 2011-12 GT models:

It's a shame someone doesn't make a pair of 19x10s of these wheels for the rear to fill up the wheel wells nice and flush. Better yet, how about a 19x9 and 19x10 of these wheels with a deep dish look. Now those I'd buy! Painted spokes with machined or polished lip!

Don't see too many of these: My Kazera KZ-AT's.
18x8.5 and 18x9.5 (I want to get another pair of 18x9.5's so I can run them all the same)
Painted black undercoat then Bronze paint.

Looks great! Normally these wheels dont excite me, but look really good on your car.

awesome thread ... i too am tired of all the similarity and the lack of thinking "outside the box"

my forgestar f14's were messed up in a accident so i got something up my sleeve to be able to play here.

Maybe not. I haven't seen one other car with them. My apologies for wasting bandwidth.

Some picture of mine. They are the actual GT500 PP Wheels. Measure 19x9.5 Front, and 20x9.5 Rear. Unique on anything but a 10+ GT500. I love these wheels on the 05-09 body style. I'm probably going to go lower next summer.
