Rims

I am looking to get some 20in chrome rims for my 2004 GT will it weigh me down a lot in comparison to the factory bullit style rims?

yes, they will weigh alot more than the stock ones. Also, anything bigger than an 18 on the new edge cars looks like ghetto crap IMO. 20's can fit on a s197, but not the sn95's

On a 2004 gt (99-04 body) anything larger than 18s doesnt look right. And yes 20s weigh ALOT more. If you have the power to make up for it go for it if thats what you want.

on a 2005+, 19/20s or go home!

Agreed, anything larger than 18"s on the SN95 New Edge look like crap.

I saw a pic of a new Shelby GT500 w/ some DUBS and I must say, it looked pretty good. But the SN95's arent the right body style for 20's. Put 19's in back and 18's up front. Thats different, but not ghetto.

Yea don't do 20's on a Sn95 or New Egde, it just doesn't look right. My friend had 19's on his 2003 and it actually looked real good. You couldn't even tell they were 19's. They looked good. Too bad he sold it. I'd say 17's or 18's also
