Wheels aside, I am looking forward to seeing the MrElite GT in a few days. Of the photo's I've seen the color is all over then place. The iridescence, and chromatics, play havoc with cameras try to capture it.

So I need to see it my self . Hopefully my eyes and memory will be better than the camera pictures.

Damn, your GT is beautiful! We need to do a license plate montage at the rally too.

Wow that is stunning.
I learned from the voting in the poll that some people were shaking their heads of the thought of aftermarket wheels on a GT.
I hope they can appreciate the fact that this true performance machine is capable of far more than the average Joe can extract from it, and that some GT owners enjoy personalizing their vehicle with wheels that looks spectacular even though they might be mounting heavyer wheels than the original ones. Yes - some people get it "wrong" in some people’s eyes, but I think Shelby hit it out of the park with this one...

NJS debuted his car in Utah with a couple of different wheel combos.

Hahaha Photoshop for the win.... I'm not sure I'm a fan of chrome bling wheels and the conversion to small steel brakes :rofl
