I was confused on the description cause it says 17x9 front and 17x10 rear with 24mm offset

But on the pick of the rim it says 17x8 and a 45mm offset..........???

Just made me wonder if the stock Perellis could be used on these rims??

The stampings for the 05 offset. Looks like someone chrome plated the machined rims. Also the auctions a mess the numbers are all miss matched as is the model year through out the auction.

yeh, I noticed the numbers didnt match, that is why I was asking if someone could tell if they were indeed the upgraded rims, and if they would fit the Pirelli tire...............................anyone know?

What is staggered fitment mean?

If they truely are just plated OEM 17" machined rims I don't see how mounting the stock Pzeros on them would be a problem.

They are the stock rims triple coated in chrome. The center caps are not included in the auction, but can be added for a fee.

Thanks everyone.

The stock Ford rims are 17x8 like those and the ad says 17x9 front and 17x10 rear so how could they be the stock rims just chromed.Every thing I've read says the rims for the GT are 17x8 so htese must be rims that look like the stock GTrims only wider and chromed.

So I think what we're saying is that those are the stock rims chromed (which I think look really nice), and the seller isn't all that bright (or English is new to him/her).

If those are the 17x8 stock rims (which only the seller can confirm for you), then yes, the stock Pirellis will fit.

If they really are 17x9 and 17x10, no, the stock Pirellis won't fit.

Email the seller and confirm the size. Looks like his/her info is just wrong.

Yes, they are the factory 17x8 rims, front and rear. It's just another eBay seller who doesn't pay attention to the details.
