    Pix of the new shoes - even if they do stick out.....lol

    dude, that doesn't look nearly as bad as others i've seen with 24mm offsets. you could actually get it to look pretty decent with a drop, and more importantly, a panhard bar. getting the rear centered will make a world of difference.

    General consensus- 19" or 20" on the GT?

    and yes, the ride IS noticeably harsher, but hey, that's the trade-off. though i'm willing to live with it (for good looks and better handling), i'm sure there are others who would be appalled.

    General consensus- 19" or 20" on the GT?

    i went from ford 18" bullitts to 20x9/20x10's with frpp suspension and eibach sportlines and the thing handles like it's on rails. i definitely noticed an improvement with the 20's. even though they weigh more, the wider/lower profile tires make all the difference...

    Konig Beyonds - 20x9 + 20x10

    very nice! i don't think the rears are too tall at all. 20's with fat tires give it an updated muscular look. get some better pics from different angles.

    20" wheels ~ almost embarrassed

    1) :notnice: i know how awful this offset looks on our cars and no way would i been seen with them. 2) :notnice: that will cost as much as a new set of wheels. 3) :notnice: don't exist. 4) :nice: now you're talkin. i'm sure the plenty of 99-04 owners who would love a good deal on a set of...

    20" wheels ~ almost embarrassed

    i'd also suggest doing more research on wheel/tire sizes before making a purchase. i'd never trust a seller (not even a big name vendor) to provide me with the correct setup. too much $$$ at stake.

    20" wheels ~ almost embarrassed

    they must be 20x9's... who on earth suggested that offset and tire size??? whoever it was, they're all wrong. 24mm is for 99-04's. s197's need a 40mm offset. that's why your rears are sticking outside of the wheel wells. also, 255's all around are a joke; fine for import tuners, not so much for...

    20's came - don't like the tire-Anyone run 295's on the rear?

    mine are 20x9/20x10 w/ 245/35 and 295/30's (planning on 305's for my next set)...

    My '07 SGT (pics)...

    thanks, guys! cali, I agree 100%! couldn't stand the vinyl stripes! I'll be painting the new stripes on myself; probably a modified version of the superstripe on just the hood, unless I get a hair across my azz and wind up doing the whole car. so stan, you were actually one of the lucky...

    My '07 SGT (pics)...

    thanks, guys! red, those emblems were only available on sgt's. they can be found on ebay occasionally, but being that shelby owns the rights to them and they won't allow ford to sell them to the public, people wind up bidding outrageous amounts of money on them ($200+ on average). :shrug:

    My '07 SGT (pics)...

    correct again, autumn. sgt's came with standard gt bakes. I got the brembos for a song and a dance on ebay.

    Now that the 2011 is out of the closet...

    imo, the 2010 gt500 looks ten times better than it's predecessor (ugly tail lights and all). not a fan of the new gt though. :nonono:

    My '07 SGT (pics)...

    lol @ stan! :D I hear you though... I guess if I ever got my hands on an original old school stang, I wouldn't mod it either...but that would be different, as it would already be worth something in it's original condition. these late model stangs, original or not, just continue to depreciate, so...

    My '07 SGT (pics)...

    thanks, ken! I agree wholeheartedly! and thank you for the feedback, stan. I can assure you that it's still very much a shelby and everyone that sees it in person don't doubt it for a minute. the original shelby mods were cool n all, but I wanted something different, but I still wanted it to...

    My '07 SGT (pics)...

    I love this forum! :nice: I just saw a thread in which some people were fairly upset about the idea of modding a shelby. being that that's a subject close to my heart, I'm hoping to revive the conversation. here's some recent pics of my 07... my original plan was to...

    GT Headlights...oncoming traffic.

    That probably happens to 90% of GT owners on regular basis (based on the number of posts I've seen on various forums). I've come to the conclusion that, yes, most people flash their lights because they think you have your brights on, but it's also because of the amount of light you're shining in...

    Back Window Louvers

    you are correct, stan. I'd like to see some photos as well, as I've been considering this mod. retro, I have some bad news for you... those aren't roush louvers.
