Need Opinion on Wheels


Benner

Recommended Posts

So my stock T-stars are getting really faded/dulled so I'm throwing the idea of Refinishing/painting them. I either want a graphite color or black. So which of these do you think looks better.

 

And I know I know. It's a Grand Prix, but it's what I have so Oh well.

 

I know they're close but trying to get a general idea.

Here's stock

Lighter color

Spend the money on a Mother's polish ball and a drill then go to town.

 

This, and if that doesn't work stop being ghetto and buy these

The price is nice, but I would avoid spending money on 6.5" wide wheels.

Not a lot, like I said, the price is nice and the fact that they fit for sure w/o spacers or clearance issues is nice. If I was to buy a different set of wheels for a decently powerful fwd car like this though, I'd sure is hell spend the money on something that supports a wider tire. All I'm sayin.

one wheel is a different finish than the others so i'd have to get a hold of another wheel that's like the others.

I suppose, just didn't think that was such a big deal. The mustang wheels would be a decent choice as well. So long as you don't paint the stockers.

+1 on the Mustang wheel idea too. I've seen them on Regals and thought they looked decent.

I forget the name of the ones I really like, but they are simliar to these.

 

There's a guy/feel bad I forget his name, who had a nice Black GTP and worked in Dublin. Screen name there was Bluejacket. I've pm'd him for details. He sold it and has a nice black G8 now. Was on goclubgp and I thought there. His were perfect.

 

Get them and drop it just a bit. Looks tits. The GPX ? Concept back in the late 90s, dark blue/gold.....was HOT. I'll see if I can find pics of it. Get Bonny GXP wheels even.
