Bonnie GXP rims! Picked them up today! Always thought these were the closest to the concepts rims as we could get. And kinda a followup to the last thread about "please name these wheels.. the GP GXP concept" The Bonnie's looked sweet and was hoping to find a set...well as soon as I picked up the bullitts I found these..picked them up this morning..Real nice guy and won't say how much I got them for but came to a price a lot less than what he was asking. Either I asked at the right time or he needed to get rid of them.
I really couldnt say no..so now I go from 1 set to 3..
But here is a preview after picking them up. What he described as curbrash is only a small couple of nicks in one corner of one of them. they are 235/50R18
Will mount them when the weather gets a little better. About a summer of meat left on them. and the good thing is..pricing out these tires for a Bonnie GXP rim is a lot less and a lot more to choose from..
I just put them in front of the rims now. Just to get an idea. Tried taking a total pic but it looked strange. And the top of this rim looks like curb rash but its just dirt.

and yup New England winter the cars dirty..

im betting they are the same as the GP's backs....they are 55mm I think....the BONNEGXPs didnt have the huge offset in front so they wouldnt have the 40mm backspacing up front...so those prob wont work on the front for slicks...it would look a lil bolegged...LOL..
