What is the Max for wheels and Tires on the V6 without messing up the Speedo?? would 18' Foose rims with 255/45 ZR 18 front and 285/40 ZR 18 G-force in the rear, fit ok?? These are ones I saw on the GT for my last thread. Just wonder if it will work on my V6.

Should be able to get something for your stock tires at that Disc. Tires. I think I saw someone post that he got $400 for his there. I think I'm going to try that myself in a week or two.

When I got my new ones the numbers I put in said if the speedo said I was going 65 then my speed would be 65.10. Not a big difference!!!

Wait...I'm confused. You got four hundred bucks for the stock TIRES? Or wheels? Or both??

If you really meant tires, you got one heckuva deal!

And those wheels are gorgeous!

$400 trade for the stock tires/wheels which lowered the total cost to $900 for new tires/wheels in 17 inch. You could get cheaper wheels or tires if you wanted.....
