New Tres & Wheels are on I know, I know, this thread is worthless without pics, but I haven't had a chance to wash the car lately, blah blah blah. Wheels are 19"x8" HSV VX GTS imported from JHP Vehicle Enhancements in Aussiland. http://www.jhp.com.au/enlarge.php?im....jpg?imagealt=
Tires are Toyo Proxes T1-R's. http://www.toyo.com/tires/tire_lines...s_car/tr1.html
Unfortunately the center cap of the wheels was just a bit (maybe 1 or 2mm) larger in diameter than the stock Pontiac caps so I had to go with the HSV caps. I think the Red arrowhead would have really looked sharp in there. But overall I really like the look. The tires are interesting to drive on when they are cold, almost like ice, I will reserve final judgement until I can properly break them in and then get them up to temp before my next spirited maneuver.
Nathan, the old rims are ready when you are.
