Thumbs up What if Year One made snowflake rims for the GXP

hey guys I sent a message to Year One about these


I know they have to be 18" rims for our cars..now question is. Is the bolt pattern..

Is the bolt pattern the same for the older GP's? going how far back?

What other GM products use the same bolt pattern besides the Monte and Impala?

The reason why I ask is..if..and IF we get enough interest..they might do a run of rims for our FWD LSx powered cars..

Of course the more interest the less the costs. Again this is just a shot in the dark..but these rims look great and I am sure would look great on these cars.

I did do a quick photoshop of these rims using my car. The gold looks out of place..so maybe black or grey or white inserts.

I prefer the stock GXP wheels. In the right color combo, those could work.

i think it looks kinda similar to the old gtp wheels. you know the ones that looked like the gta wheels. not crazy about it.


they obviously have more spokes and what not, but you get the point.

of course it would work great with the black GXP and gold innners like that. But a white one like mine I would do maybe grey or black.
