Well given today's weather, I thought I would put on one side of the wheels to get some pictures to give you all peek at how they look on my GTX. I think they look pretty damn good!

I know obviously the car is gonna need to be lowered to fill in the top of the wheel wells. But the over all space is filled in nicely. The car looks like its listing cause I have on one side the 16" wheels and the other side the 18" wheels.

I hope you all like! I DO!!













I got this thing from Afterthoughts.com. Its a mini tire garage. I got from my $50 gift certicate from Branson 2006 lol. It worked out quite nicely.

They look really sharp
Look great on the ride

What are the tire size you have
on the 18" rims ?

Those are some very nice wheels. I like those.

You know what else I noticed? I dont think you have submitted pictures for the screen saver project and I dont think I have any pictures of a GTX that I can recall right now without going through all of them.

If you would like to participate in that project please feel free to send me full resolution pictures.

Hey Scotty,

I am sorry I hadnt done that, work has been running up the backside, and working part time at the winery here during the days has taken up a good chunk of my time. I have to go back to the thread to find your email addy so I can mail you a few of them

Thanks for reminding me

HAAHA! He has felt the heat many times for that sticker

I really do like those wheels...it's not about stickers...it's not about stickers...it's not about stickers...it's not about stickers...it's not about stickers...I'm really trying

Yar Dave gots my back!!!

To "stir the pot" as Lee affectionately says, notice there is a lack of St. Louis Club GP stickers on the car??

I was suppose to get a set from the girl who makes ours back before Branson, but she could not get them done. So I never got back around to it and now its to cold to apply successfully, so I am just gonna wait till spring to get them put on

Thanks Kel! The tire garage is an awesome idea!!! I love it! Its only like 59 bucks even without the $50 coupon. I reccomend getting the felt covers as well to rest between the tires. I used the soft cottonlike material that came with the wheels to place between them for now.

And YES I have felt the heat for the sticker, but luckily I know most joked about it. Except for Zack lol who labeled me the "traitor." Awh the fun days indeed!

I like the new wheels, looks good. what lowering kit you goin with?

I might go with Stock shocks or the Monroe Sensetracks with probably the SSC Gen IIs again or those German ones.

man, your car will look sick when you get it lowered. i reccomend some vogtlands. not too low, but enough to give it a good look without a harsh ride.

What springs are you using and are you using antipogo washers?
