Wheel question for 2011s

[DDTCM]

Not really a tech question but does anyone know of the 05-09 aftermarket wheels will fit a 2011 gt?

there is no difference from 05-11

Excellent! Now I can keep my wheels!

 

[Wish I Had a Nice Car]

the only difference is atleast the 11's have a different style of TPMS. Its the valve stem and its pretty easy to swap over to the new wheels

Depends on if the 2011 has the brembo package.

 

[DDTCM]

Of course bigger brakes would be a issue but this would be just a regular fitment.

yup ... but if the offset is right it should clear the brembos ... even with 18's

i have some chrome FR500's in 18x8 and 18x10 for sale that were bought for my 2011, and will fit 05-09 from what i hear to..

They're close but not exactly the same. I took the 20s I had on my 2006 and put them on my 11 but I had to grind some extra casting off the calipers to get them to clear because they were rubbing. It wasn't much but they didn't clear without it. That said, if the pads weren't almost new they might have cleared.

i guess the answer would be the wheel offsets and all are the same,

but depending on the shape of the front wheel, the front rotors are just a little larger and the calipers stick up just a little higher

so depending on the front wheel design, they could possibly touch, hadn't thought about that

So are you referring to the stock calipers rubbing or the brembos? The wheels I will be possibly using will be 20x9 Razors.

Its wasn't a big deal for me to take a little off the calipers up front but I know some people want throw and go.

Looks like I wont have a issue since I let the wheels go with the car.Now its time to look for some new shoes.
