Default What do you think? 2005 Gt rims on a 97?

hey all, again after my less then exillerating experiance with the cops, a guy with a piece of fence, and my insurance, I am going to put some nicer wheels on my 97 GT. The rims are 17 x 8 original upgrade wheel for the 2005. The tires are Pirelli P-Zero Nero M + S, 235/55/17s. I have photoshop'd a pic of the rims on my 'stang and was wondering what you think of the look? Thanks!

1 is with the 05 rims
1 is with the 16" stock

I have seen those wheels on a white new edge (not sure what year) and I didn't care fo it too much... but that is personal opinion.

You will need spacers, the offsets are different.

Not sure what the actual Difference is, but I know for sure it is different and that 350Z wheels fit the new mustang, but not the previous Generations of the stang.

I think the 05's look a lot better than the stock ones, but im sure you can find some cooler ones in the aftermarket.
