04 GT -- 05 sport brakes>?
1. Are the brakes on the 05 with sport package better than the 04 brakes?
2. Will they bolt right in?

ahh... somewhere in there it was reported they changed the brakes.

Probably just for squeeling.

Call an auto parts store or look in the book to see if the are the same.

Only the "Base" automatics had the 16" wheels; all of the cars equipped with the manual transmission have the 18" wheels (and larger brakes).
