Default CCW 505a's on a 05 GTO(56k beware)

Just got them on,they are 18x8.5" front and 18x10" rear.There was a thread in here awhile back that I had with HP Evo's on my GTO but I've upgraded.Still check out my sig for those pics but I think these are a bit better

Still up in the air about removing the spoiler,so I don't know for sure yet if its going to stay or go.

i think he means its off now but hes not sure if he wants to keep it off.
i like it without the spoiler, that little lip on the trunk lid reminds me of the last body style m5's. wheels are pretty sweet too

Good lookin' car. One of the best lookin' GTO's I've seen. Wheels and colour really work. You ever think about blacking out the rear where it says GTO? Might look cool.

Looks good.Not a bad photochop at all,it gives me some ideas.I think it would better with the darken tail light from down under

I was doing it on my laptop, so no mouse-action. Tough to mask things with the touchpad.

I like just the taillights and bottom around the exhaust. It makes them "pop". But then when I looked at the side-view pic, I saw the side skirts and said, "hmm... let's see how this looks."

I almost like it, but from the angle in your pic, you can't tell where the skirt ends and the rear begins, but hey, you're the one with the cool car and the awesome wheels, so you have fun.

I definitely want those wheels, but now I'm thinking of painting my F-bod that colour (both of my cars are black, so no blacking out the bottom).

looks awesome, what size tires are you running in the rear and are you having any rubbing issues? Did you have to roll the fenders?
