Default Rims for my '05 GT

Thinking about getting rims and tires soon. Looking to get staggered wheels 18x9 in front and 18x10 in back. I know that i definitely want black rims. I like how the matte black FR500s look from cruizinconcepts.com. Opinions and other recommendations are appreciated.

It took me 11 months to decide on wheels lol. Good luck sir, it is something only you can decide on.

My personal opinion is I love the black fr500's on your year and of course 18" and staggered is the way to go size wise

Lol that's what I'm talking about. And honestly I think the only reason I decided is because I limited myself to AM for the purchase.

18" chrome staggered saleens. buying them in the spring once all the snow is gone. last thing i want is the temptation of putting on decent wheels right before winter haha.

I think they would look good. Black and silver always looks good. Also can't go wrong with the deep dish look...
