Car is in desperate need of a polish, but it was too pretty of a day not to enjoy the weather. So a wash with Z7, a trip to my friends house to put on the HPR5's I bought from him and a drive out to Jones Beach with the gf.

Now just have to paint the brakes.
 
Love the look of your Grand Prix, especially with those rims!



I'm looking to find some chrome ones for mine but it is very hard to find something that doesn't look too odd.
 
Wow :cool:



A perfect example of why lots of rim and very thin tires are not always the best looking. Very nice and clean! Now paint the rotor hubs on the discs!;)
 
Wow the car looks awesome with those wheels!



What size are they? Those would probably look good on a GA I am thinking.



edit: HPR = HP Racing?
 
Thanks everybody. I'm going to paint the rotors/capilers black when I get some free time.



The ride isn't harsher at all (which I was worried about choosing 18's). Braking with the extra rotating mass requires a little extra brake pedal force, but overall the brake action feels smoother.



The wheels are 245/45/18, 8" wide. When I was looking for new wheels, I wanted to get 17's, but my friend sold them for a price I just couldn't pass.
 
Those wheels look AWESOME! I've been looking for a long time for good GP wheels, I'll definitely be considering those when I decide to buy.
