The stock gt500 uses 18, so I haven't seen them smaller anywhere. Good luck....

I was hoping they would be a little darker, (actually black, that would look hot in my opinion) instead of a gunmetal color. I don't think you'll be able to find them in a lower size, if anything you might be able to find them in a larger size. I lucked up and found a set of 17s on E-bay but they are a 4 lug pattern and very bright (chrome).
Well, I may just end up getting the 18's. I'm still on the fence though about if I want to get them, I guess I will have to photoshop them onto a pic of my car.
Anyone know of any other places to get these? Or maybe where I can get some pony center caps?

Hawk07v6, you may be in luck my friend. I found a website that has GT500 replicas in a 17 inch wheel. They only come in chrome so depending on what you are looking for in a wheel that may or may not be a benefit for you.
Here are two links to the wheels I'm referring to. They're the same wheel but have different offsets and backspacing.
Only question is: Would the stock tire (the pirelli 235/55/17) fit? If not, what size tire should I get and what tire do you recommend? Like I said, if at all possible I want to get some more use out of the stockers.

It's cool man, I'm not much of a chrome/flash kind of guy myself. I still got my eye on a set of machined silver (and black) 18" Mach 1 wheels that I plan to pick up as soon as I burn the rubber off the 16s. Those Mach 1 replicas on the American Muscle website would look good on your car.
I think I'll get them and just get some good tires for them. I'll see if I can sell my pirellis and get a little credit for them. I am going to buy a set of snow tires and put them on my stock bullitt rims.
Whats a good size tire for 17x9's?.
