GP on Saleens...

[Bio248]

why would you want less lip? wider is better, same goes with the lip.

 

[Perry125]

Well when was the last time you saw a good looking gp with a 4" lip?

im gunna be ordering my all black saleen rims soon. i think they just look sick on 04+ gp, but i really like em on both haha

thats the problem. a 4" lip will only come on 22s+.

 

[Perry125]

I like these stern wheels, but i think the lip is too big.

 

[Bio248]

yeah, youd never get that much lip on a 8-9" wide wheel which is all we can fit. thats more than likely an 18x10

 

[Perry125]

Actually, that's 8.5"

 

[Bio248]

with what offset? it looks really low.

 

[Perry125]

+35, i think im gunna get em, but should i find out the hub bore size?

 

[Bio248]

no, i know they fit. a local member ran a similar set by stern on his car and never had a problem.

 

[Perry125]

You think they will look good?

 

[Bio248]

sure, why not?

Would one of you guys with the chrome saleens mind posting a few more pics of the car/rims? Particularly from directly in back and in front.

Thanks

those are bad ass! i think they'd look good on a gp.

 

[Perry125]

I think they'd look great also, its just they weight 27 lbs and i feel like i might feel the difference.

Aren't most 18" ish wheels about that weight? I know saleens are pretty close to that.

saleens and (stock) mustang wheels are generally pretty heavy. most aftermarket wheels are lighter than mustang wheels by a few pounds at least.

I have a question. I want to run a set of Saleens on my 08 GXP but the bolt pattern differs slightly from the v6 Gps & Montes.(5x114.3-GP's) vs (5x115-GP GXP). Will the tenths of mm make a difference.

 

[imdaman3]

^^no theylll bolt rite on and fit fine and look good
