    nonstandard wheel offsets

    i am thinking about buying some 19" rims. the front rims are 19 x 9 with 30 offset (2" lip). the rears are 19 x 10.5 with 25 offset (4" lip). would these work on a 06 GT? would i need a bump steer kit or other mods? i don't want them if they will stick out beyond the fenders

    need help with '06 GT vert exhaust

    the sound of the stock exhaust needs serious work. i want a deep, throaty sound at low rpm and little or no drone at highway speeds. i don't want it really loud (it's a convertible) or raspy/poppy, but something that deserves respect at idle. i'm not interested in squeezing as much hp as...
