20" wheels

Does anyone have any pics of 20" front 20" rear wheels on the GT? I'm not fond of the 20-22 setup.

I know Alex at SP has Carbon Fiber 20's on this car. I personally would go with 19/20 instead of 20" all around, due to the proportions of the car.

I went the 20/22 route, but will be going with a 19/20 for track wheels.

They're working on a sweet new combo that will look sik 21"rears w/20"frts. Much better proportion IMO.

I never really cared for the 20/22 setup. I think the rears look way too big. I would love to see a 19/20 combo though.

Here is a profile pic of my car. I think the wheels work very well. They look very nice in person. If you look at the rear fenders, they really bulge, so the larger wheel fits the shape better.
Keep in mind, they are still the same rolling diameter as stock.

He posted them on Fordgtforum.com. Just do a search for Dymag. That is the brand he got, since he went with carbon fiber. They are very expensive.

2" difference from front to rear is a little much for my taste, but I agree that it is still really nice looking! Especially the white w/ black centers.
