    Thats why you get the 18x9 Saleens. Looks almost the same.

    For Real. Search and find something you like that you can get a good deal on. There are so many available wheel options.
    What you need to know can be found... here
    http://www.grandprixforums.net/got-s...ere-29622.html (Got some wheel questions? In here!!)

    Just read Bio's first post. Start to finish, read it. Then use Google, or Ebay, or any other source for wheels and tires you like.
    If you want an opinion on wheels, pick out a couple styles you like and we will give insight, but you need to narrow down the field from everything, to what you think looks good.

    Over-played. We like to see people do something not "of the norm".

    different wheels than the ones shown above. 18x9 +30mm is not a good size for people who dont know fitment.

    Are there any other better rims like this for our cars? The 5 spoke corvette wheels also look great.. I just like rims with a smaller amount of spokes. The zo6 spyder wheels are nice too. Are there any others like this that look good for GPs?

    This is why I posted #8 and gave you the link. Figure out what you want, 17s, 18s, + and Bios thread will provide you with the specs you need to get the best fitment, and then price the wheels with those specs until you can make yourself happy.

    BTW Vettes, F-Bodys, most of the muscle car line-up uses a different bolt pattern that will NOT work on our cars, replicas are made in multiple sizes by certain companies, but original OEM wheels most likely won't fit. Mustangs are one of the few makes that will bolt on directly to our cars and fit well... but the newer wheels have some backspacing problems depending on the wheels you choose.
