Does anyone have pics of their GP with cobra wheels? If so, which offset? I'm depating on which offset is right for GP's. I think the 36mm is the way to go, but I'm not sure. Any help would be appreciated.

36mm is the way to go for a direct fit, but the 24mm offset ones look sooo much nicer because of the way they are nearly flush with the fender. youll probably have to roll the fender lips though so you dont rub, easy job.

i dont have any pics of them on the car... but i think cobra rims on a gtp would be SICK!

ive got the 17x9 24mm offset cobra wheels in my basement. they will stay there until next year. its a waste of money to buy tires right before winter.

so the 24mm would be flush, but the 36mm would be a better fit. i work out of a body shop and rolling the lips would be no prob. but i don't know if the wheels would stick out too far with the 24mm wheels. i was planning on putting the 18x9's on. is that too much wheel for a 99 GP? could i fit it in with the 36mm offset? i would love to see your GP with the 17's but i agree, no sense in doing that before winter! what size tire do you have or recommend for the 18x9's?

those 18x9 with 36mm offset will be fine. the thing that will be the hardest is rubbing on the inner fenders and your trailing arms.

ok, so here's one last question. i found a set of ae 18" 077's. the guy says they're a 5x4.5 pattern. i looked on the internet and found out that the offset is the same for the 5x115's and the 5x4.5's (38mm). if i use hubcentric rings, and arp studs, can i use the mustang wheels? i know theres alot of talk on here about that, but nothing about ae wheels. your guys help would be great!

just run them without anything. they'll go right on and be just fine. anyone that takes extra precautions for .3mm is crazy. that is a dimension that is barely even visible if at all.

thanks, i appreciate your help. i'll post some pics when i get the wheels on!
