Just finished installing my new wheels and tires
Black Saleens
18 x 10 rears with 285/40/18 nitto 555 Extremes and
18 x 9 fronts with 245/40/18 nitto 555 Extremes
we just took in a 2007 GT on a trade in at the Dealer that I work at, I was able to
swap these for my oem 17" polished 5 spokes, rims and tires are brand new, it looked
like the tires were just mounted, cost = free to me.

Looks very nice! But I may be a little biased to BLACK cars.

Sinister. I have all-black wheels also and it's a ****** getting those things to show properly in pics.

I was looking at these same Wheels at AM, I love the way those wheels bring the tires out to the edge of the fender well, it looks so mean.

I really loved this tire/wheel pkg from AM, then I found the Godspeed Stealth Black deep dish tire/wheel pkg.....I fell in love with it right away and pretty much had made up my mind.......until you posted this, now you got me wanting these again LOL

Your car looks amazing with those tires/wheels, very good choice!

Oh BTW how much did your Ultra Light Springs lower your car?

springs lowered the front about 1" and the rear about 1 1/2" after they settled in, didn't need the caster/camber plates and my car aligned up with no problem.
