Anyone know what brand they are or anything?

Those are decent, but they remind me too much of Goat rims.

I think the stock rims are the best looking on the GT.
Although the car could probably lose an inch or two...

It's low enough IMO. You lower it too much, and you'll be scraping it on every apron and curb. I had that issue with my TA. I hated that the most.

Not an easy question, but I'd go for stock.

I know both the stock and upgrade rims are too skinny for even a decent tire. I'd pic the stock wheels and probably upgrade to a nice aftermarket wheel and tire combo. The 235 are too skinny for the front and definately too skinney for the rear. Come to think of it, I don't think I recall such a skinny looking tire on 8" rims before.

IMO the new Premium wheels suck, I don't care for the 2nd one at all and the Bullitt wheels get my vote without a doubt. When/if I get my '05 or '06 it WILL get the Bullitt wheels or I was thinking of Boyd Coddington's Cast Smoothie IIs ... those are very similar to the Bullitts and sweet looking!

None. IMO... Chrome Saleen Wheels look the best
