I can't decide what looks good. I've been through the pics of peoples cars thread 10 times and still can't decide. I have a silver 2001 GT, Give me your opinions please.

Silver as in mineral gray or DSG?

MG, I would go with black saleens 18x9,10 with other black accents like chin spoiler, tint, bumper inserts it would look sick.

DSG, you cant go wrong with an anthracite, gunmetal finish wheel as it accents the color of the car IMO.

On silver, i would stay away from chrome. I would either run something in silver, black, or hypercoat....

I think some of these would look good...

As much as I am getting tired of FR500's, they do look good so im gonna recommend these....

weren't you talkin about getting some springs n what not like a week ago?
i suggest lowering your car first .....and as for wheels, the first ones that epik posted, the hypercoated Saleens would look good.

I put the black Bullitts on my white GT, like the contrast, will add some more black later probably. Fit is great, price is good, but they seem pretty heavy.
