lastly-- If you can afford a 55K dollar powerful monster like the Gt500, then seriously what is a set of tires at that point?

I have never walked out of a dealership because of the OEM tires.. LOL.. Something that is a normal replaceable/wearable item..

What is next...(potential buyer)"I don't like the air filter,, no thanks".. (salesman) "sir, you can put an AC/Delco or FRAM filter in if you want. They are 11 bucks at autozone".. (potential buyer) "No thanks, I will keep shopping, this car isn't for me".. lol
The tires on the 2011 GT500 with the PP option are far better than the standard GT500 rubber. But still only 295's in the rear a nice 325 out back would be help. The SVT PP option is only $2000 in Canada and $3495 in the USA. So I don't know where you got the $5,500 figure from.
At least we get one good option deal up here in Canada. lol To bad the base price is way higher.
