Hi All,

I will be ordering an '06 Tungsten GT in early '06 (Jan? Feb?). I've been wrestling with 17" standard wheels, the 18" fanblades... but I did a quick chop of the GT500 wheel on the back of this GT and left the front with the 18" for comparison. It is crude, but you can compare the two at the same time.

A shame they're giving us the Marauder wheel as a 3rd option. I'm thinking the GT500 is for me

Thoughts? Opinions? I want to hear from you.

Stan

The more I see the fanblades the more I like them. I think the Tungsten silver is a great color!

You sure that's an FR500 in back? Looks more like the Z06 Corvette wheel.

I'm torn too - I like both the 500s (esp in black or grey) and the fanblades. Can't go wrong either way.

Ditto on those being Z06 wheels. I am also a big fan of the fanblades.

Yep, they are Z06... but had the best angle to work with. Very similar, tho...

Fanblades do nothing for me.

I still like the FR500 wheels better than the GT500 wheels... so that's what I'm going with.
