stock rims are 21.6lbs. I found them on tirerack.com. plug in a mustang gt and you will find them at the end of the list 17x8 bullits. and it says it's lightweight at 21.6.

Those are actually pretty nice - reminiscent of the GT500 wheels.

Funny, I posted those wheels about a month ago with almost the exact same message title. Search for my name and you will see the not so favorable comments it got. I like em.

I think you'd ahve to have a lot of brake behind it if you get 19s, id like em on an 05 with bigger brakes, but if they're smaller(i dont know how big 05 brakes are) they'd make it look akward

The bigger brake rotors will probably add as much or more weight than your saving with those rims.
