Lowering Spring Question
Edit: Er... I'm guilty of not reading the OP close enough while I was on my phone. So yeah... it's like everyone else says. They changed the strut mounts in '11 IIRC. I learned that when I upgraded from Steeda HD upper strut mounts to Maximum Motorsports caster/camber plates and they accidentally sent me the '11+ ones. I can't remember what they changed about the struts for the GT in '11, they apparently left the GT500 mounts the same because the '05-'10 ones are for all S197 GT500's too.

If you're going w/ aftermarket lowering springs, you may want to consider getting HD strut mounts or camber/caster plates. The factory plastic strut mounts are notoriously weak and'll start popping when you go over bumps.
Out of curiosity -- why specifically '05-'10 springs?

If you don't want to upgrade your shocks and struts just buy the 11-13 springs. If you are planning on doing the shocks and struts and want to use the 05-10 you either need camber plates or the GT500 mounts as well.
Although I know the SR springs are 05-14 and will work with the stock struts and mounts. That's what I have on my car. But don't buy those prints. Not the best. Spend a little more for the eibachs
