Looking for some 18" wheels for my GT vert, any ideas for best price and options?

Any resale value on the 17's that came on it? I would sell wheels and tires combined, only 1,800 miles on car.

I had a very good experience with Discount Tire Direct. They sold me great 18" rims and tires, gave me 150.00 off because I had to wait a few weeks. I did not care because car was in for paint. When I put them on had a slight shake at 45 MPH, so I stopped at their local branch and they balanced my fronts again (free) and sent me on my way in no time. I also have a set of 17 inch bullits and stock tires with 2 miles but why sell them for a measly 400 dollars?
There Web based sales staff are very helpful!

Try JD Wheels.com

I sent them a pic of my car after I got my wheels from them and they used it on their web site under DeZenyo Wheels!

I bought Boyd Coddington Smoothies but they take a long time to have produced ( 8 weeks )

I paid 285 apiece for the 18 x 9 rims and
303 a piece for the 18 x 10 rims.
Then they knocked off another 150 after adding the tires.
I like these naked aluminum rims. They are more work than clearcoated rims but they can be polished up to a chrome like shine!

thanks for Wheel Info

I am getting Flowmaster exhaust installed this weekend. Really my first mod, planning on adding CAI and tune soon.

Any problem with the 20" rims? Clearance or other...
