    Either offset is okay? Advantage with either 42mm or 50mm?

    Factory offset for the 16x6.5 is already +52.

    They will barely stick out farther and neither has an advantage. To me it's a downgrade as the 06-07 GT's came with 17's stock, unless you are needing winter rims.

    I have an 04 GT2 and i want to know if 17x8 38+ offset with a backspacing of 6.00 and a hub bore of 72.6 will fit. Will I need spacers? What size tire best fits a 17x8?

    The same psi you run your summer tires at.

    i was looking at American Racing AR913 rims (18 inch) and i was wondering if they would fit? specs are: 18" DIAMETER (18" x 8.5") +40 Offset, 5x114.3 Bolt Pattern, 72.6mm Hub. If they do fit would i need to put hubcentric rings on it?

    5x114.3 fits and stock is 70.3, so yes you'll need centric hub rings. other then that, i got no idea. i like to have some rubber between me and the road.

    I was looking at these rings as well http://us.hubcentric-rings.com/size-72.6-70.3/ to go with the AR913 (18" x 8.5") +40 Offset, 5x114.3 Bolt Pattern, 72.6mm Hub. So what would be the best tires for this setup? And would i need to modify my wheel wells at all?

    only 245/45/18 on that wheel

    I am lowered with about 2 degrees negative camber on a wheel with the same specs except 8 inches wide. These will be .4 inches wider(.2 inches inside /outside).

    I have plenty of room.

    That reference is on the first page.

    "19" wheel, up to 8.5" wide: +38mm offset to +45mm offset"

    Hey guys, I have an 07 GT and was wondering if you recommend any 18s for me. I like the 5 spoke star patterns preferably in gunmetal but I can paint it myself. I'm having a hard time finding good wheels that tickle my fancy.

    Would probably work with a 245/45r18

    So I'll be installing my bullitt wheels this spring. 17x9 +24 offset and run a 245/40/17 tire. From my research I. Should not have any rubbing issues. I am not lowered at all.

    But it will stick out(towards fender) roughly 2.5 inches more than stock. It will also be a 1 inch smaller diameter tire.

    That is going to look radical to some and not right to most. If it was on bags and somehow tucked with stretched 205/55/17 or whatever, maybe, but on a normal suspension no fckin way.
    Excuse me if i didnt notice any lowering mention.

    A 245/50/17 is almost identical to a 225/60/16. By dropping to a 245/45/17 or 245/40 i am still close. I used the site www.willtheyfit.com

    My car is not lowered. The plan was to lower it originally but I have decided against it.

    the 45's leave you with wheel gap on a stock set up. my snows are 225 45 17. the width might change the side wall some but still got a gap.

    I wont know how much wheel gap Ill have until the wheels are on and the car is on the ground. If I end up not liking the way things look I can always sell the wheels and start over. I was originally told these wheels were a +30 but it appears they are not.
