Very nice George!

I'm still in love with the wheels that BlackShelby posted a while back, but Mrs. G would surely kick me out of the house if those showed up.

I agree ,on a black car those are awesome. I did consider them too but it was not the look I wanted with the blue and white combo.

I am very happy with the new look ,it's what I've been looking for since day one.
18" X 9" front
18" X 10" rear
Goodyear Eagle F1 supercar tires with 180 tread wear (same as 08-09 KR )
255 45-ZR18 front
285 40-ZR18 rear

[TOMMY GUN]

Are your GT500 letters different?

Made like Speedracers?

.

[TOMMY GUN]

You disappoint me w/ the cross drilled rotors.

I thought you didn't agree w/ those?


.

[Carnut]

Me likey very much.

They remind of the Ford GT wheels. The silver makes them even more so.

[Johnny Lupara]

I agree with the rest my friend, the new wheels add a lot to the appearance.....

That's what I liked about them too, they also mimick the new KR wheels which were also designed similar to the 05 Ford GT wheel.
I perfered the look of the silver painted center and pol lip against the vistablue .

So you are taking them off if going to the track?

What are your thoughts on the DBA's?

I may be getting the DBA's for the Mini for track use.

Yes for now I will just put the OEM's back on.

What's a DBA ? If it's a lightweight rotor then that's always a good thing anytime you can lighten the rotating mass and still maintain proper braking.

Now ...back on topic..
