Sorry, not the concepts. The ones that are not available are the 18" chrome fanblades.

I'm looking and searching but I can't find a pic of the 18 inch wheels that was going to be an option.

That is where I get confused. I know the bright machined wheels are called concept wheels sometimes. But isn't the fan baldes (which were on the concept car) considered a concept wheel?

The rims that were on the concept car are a 20" version of the polished rims (upgrade on GT). The 18" chrome fanblades are shown on the original flyer FORD was handing out and on the GT's at autoshows. Here is a pic with the 18" fan blades that are not available until 2006 (or late 2005)

I ordered a sonic Blue GT and already have my pearlescent white vinyl at home just begging to be cut to size. I will be putting those stripes on as well as rocker panel stripes.
