Are those wheels available with the '05 off-set?

I'm not absolutely sure about the offset. It just shows them as 2005. I have an email into them to find out. I'll relay any info I get.

Kind of an interesting read, and if you scroll to the bottom (an actually throughout the article) there are quite a few links to companies manufacturing rims (wheels) that you might like.

Thanks! If they are available or will be soon, I would guess there will be quite a lot of interest in them. For one, Me!

Will 16" wheels fit on the 05 or will that be cutting it close?

As far as running anything smaller than a 17"dia wheel, everyone I've heard from has said a smaller diameter wheel will not clear the GT brake calipers.

Well all I know is there is a big difference between a drag radial and "Street Slicks" like ET Streets.
If you are buying them strictly for the track get the Street Slicks. I put mine on at home and drive them to the track, they kinda stink bigtime going around corners, but they rock going in a straight line!

I have a couple of friends with '03-'04 Cobra's running 16" wheels with the M/T drag radials and they hook pretty well. A 16" tire will give you more sidewall flex. A GT can get by with 15's on the back.
