Just got the wheels and exhaust yesterday. (for an unheard of discount) The exhaust is a bit loud, but i like it. Anyways here it is....

 

don't like the Gram Light rims...offset doesn't look right and you need to drop the car asap

 

Loving the 05 GPW's. I also, am not a fan of the gram lights. I think you should powder coat them white or bronze. Nice car none the less.

 

ur car looks clean

but i would put the stock rims back on though just my taste........ keep up the good work...

those invidias are pretty loud huh?

 

Yeah I know the rims arent everyones taste but i do like them, any suggestions for a mild drop, nothing too crazy???? can someone explain why the offset doesnt look right on my car?

 

looks great, just needs a lil drop.

btw, if you're selling your oem rims, let me know.

[QUOTE=KWgpws2k,Jul 31 2005, 06:12 PM] Yeah I know the rims arent everyones taste but i do like them, and i got them for 550 for all four (brand new). any suggestions for a mild drop, nothing too crazy????

 

my rims are 17x7.5 +40 and 17x8.5 +40.....

 

your gonna have problems on the rear and maybe the front. all depends on the drop but you genrally want to keep the rear above +50 on this car. dont mark my words but your gonna have problems on the rear and the front. then again it all depends on your drop.
im running +43 on the front and thats a 17x7.5 wheel with 17x8.5 +53 in the rear.
also what size tires are you running cause this will play a major factor too. hope this helps, but i do think you'll encounter several problems along the way

 

Tires are the stock ones. The suspension is stock for now, but I will want to drop it about an inch down the road. What kind of problems do you assume i will run into?


So should I sell these beasts and get something with the right offset?
