I would then place a Nitto 275/35/20 on the 9x10 wheel. Has anyone done this? He does it all the time and said the Nitto run narrower than other tire manufactors and he has never had any complaints or issues. The company sells the heck out of the Shelby wheels.
My car is a 2012 non PPSVT, so it sits a little higher in the rear.

Dealer is asking $40,000 I am not really in the position to buy however, if I can swing a great deal It could happen.

Detail, 2010 with 19,000 miles in very good condition. Tires are good, brakes, motor all seemed solid as well.

Here is a link to the car:

What would you suggest is a good deal? Do you think offering $37000 is realistic? If not, what would be a good offer?

Again, probably not going to happen however, there is a slight chance. ]]> General Discussion chris410 http://www.fordgt500.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15604 Traction Control-Launch Control? http://www.fordgt500.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15603&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 00:30:15 GMT The 2013 GT500's get launch control.

I heard somewhere later that with some certificates u don't want to lamenate because they can't tell if the certificate is real or not.
However, a phone call to the Shelby Foundation said since the certificates are not hand signed, (only the dash itself), and the certificates are numbered it would be fine. Is this true? What about not being able to touch the actual paper if an expert looked at the certificate? He also has printed copies of the order and invoices from the sale he printed off on his computer. He is not selling his plaque, he just wants to make sure it will never be questioned as to it's authenticity.
