No they aren't. They're the stock 17x8 wheel from 99-00 GT's. 01-04 GT's had Bullits.

Yeah, that price is a bit high, especially w/o tires. But now i can look for some non-GT looking stock 17"s to cover my big brakes. I actually like the stock 04 v6 wheels but i think they are 16s. :(

I have 02' pony's on my 95, they are 16's. And yes, those are way over-priced. I got mine for 250 with BF's with less than 10k on them, and the rims aren't all banged up. If you are going to spend that much, might as well get some cobra's or something. GL

I stand corrected.

I got my GT wheels for free with tires. I use them for road trips and stuff.

450.00 for used stock wheels with no tires? that guy must be high. yeah, for CLOSE to the same price, you could get a set of brand new wheels.
