I like the GT's !!Haha you may direct hate this way;) oh mate, theres no hate here -only love my friend xxoo I had a good look at these guys, and really, yes they are a fare bit shorter than a "normal" GT, but it just made me think "why not just go buy an awesome quality normal GT for 1/10th of the price. BTW they were $125 each. maybe 15cm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
