'07 GT wheel/tire question - 10/4/2007 9:01:48 PM    HDFINDER47   Posts: 93 Joined: 2/13/2007 Status: offline I am changing my stock 17's out for 18" Shelby Gunmetal Razors with Nitto 555's.  Fitment charts indicate I should  go with 18X9 wheels and either 255/45 ZR18's all around or 245/45 front and 275/40 rear. Any reason to go with the latter on a 300 HP vert daily driver? Is there that much difference in looks?  Thanks. _____________________________ '07Alloy 5spd Vert: Shelby spoiler;cmft gp;spt appear pkg;active sec;heated seats;Sirius Shaker 500;20/13 tint;tungston stripes w/1/4"pins; Brens SCT2 + Steeda CAI;WEB Elect seqs;MobilOne;18x9 Shelby Razors w/Nitto 555's (245/ 275);Eibach PRO-Kit; MAC's Post #: 1
