Which wheels?

Check with www.newtakeoff.com they aren't real cheap and neither is their shipping.

I'll have a set of wheels and tires for sale as soon as my new wheels arrive. Stock 18s with Pirelli's. Should have less than 500 miles on them. I'd like to sell the whole set (including TPMS sensors) vs 2 at a time though.

I have nothing but huge respect for the GN, T-Types, and GNX. I've loved them since I was a young teenager.

Major props man

What about something like THIS from Brenspeed. If I am correct these 05 rims will fit the 10-11's just fine and they are a better size for the DR allowing for a taller sidewall and more sidewall wrinkle.

Just an idea...

Those are another short tire.

And those tires can get awfully squirrelly on the big end when you lower the air pressure in them low enough to get them to hook good.

Those wheels with some taller drag radials would be better.

I have a set of 17's that I just pulled off of my 2011 V6. Includes tires with the TPMS sensors.

No good for race wheels, they are only like 7 or 7.5 wide.

Will 17" still fit on the BACK of a base or Brembo 2011 GT ??

If so, there are some under $100 17" aftermarket wheels on Discout Tire Direct ...
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...rw=&vid=016418
... with FREE SHIPPING.

I think even 15" wheels will fit depending on backspace.

Saleen has the 18" and 19" take offs advertised on their website,,

I'd hazard a guess they are complete with the TPMS,,

Hellacious deal on sets of wheels and tires but the OP is looking for a pair of wheels to use for drag tires.

Shipping is kind of pricey though...
