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.

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?
