I cannot believe how frustrating this is.
If I knew there was so few wheel op's for a 2011 gt w/ brembo,
I would have passed on the car. No matter how much I love it.:nonono:
Can someone please tell me the range of offset MM
this car will take? All I get is alot of "ahhh", I think so.
Yes, it has the stock unattractive Champagne flute track pack 19X9 w/ 42MM.
I would like to put 18X 9.5 all around.
Car is white, so not much looks good on it.
Was thinking old skool Shelby (Vision Torque 143)
American Racing VN 427 look.
Dont mean to sound so uniformed,
just a green pea.
Please advise, its ok, I am braced for impact.

Buddy of mine has a 9.5" wheel on a brembo car that is running a +40 offset. tires are perfectly flush with the fenders. I think it depends on the style wheel as well, lipped versus concave.

Anything listed to fit a GT500 or Boss 302 will work. 18x9.5 is a very common size for the track (road course) so there are lots of options. I would also ask this question in the Boss forum as well as on other Boss and corner-carver boards/forums.

One other thing to keep in mind is most tires options for that rim size are likely to be considerably shorter than the 27" stock Brembo setup. IMO most look pretty small/undersized on these cars.
