Default what wheels...01 GPW?

I just got my 2001 grand prix white with red/black interior a few weeks ago. the wheels are in bad shape. just wondering some opinions on what type of wheel and color to put on this color combo. thinkin gold but that might be played out. anyway heres the car.

what he said. white has the greatest versatility for wheel combos. bronze, silver, mag blue, black, ti...the list goes on. although white wheels on white looks a bit wierd. what wheels are you looking at?

I would say save some money and buy ap2 rims and powder coat them white. With the money you save get some suspension work done and lower it.

BBS LM&gt;all

just make sure it's a good offset for S2k, most cheaper/jdm rwd wheels will not fits

I was so thrilled when i first gotten my s so i can use all the 5 lugs staggered JDM wheels..well, before i found out they are mostly 32-40 offset

i'm thinking to get the exact same car, same year, same color. But it has 75k miles, and it is asking $16900, not sure if it is worth it.

Anyways, I like your car very much, don't know why hahah maybe because I'm looking into the same car, or your headlight just awesome match with your car (and such low miles too)

i'm right down the street in Germantown. you should definitely join s2ki, the mid-atlantic section there is really active. we have a lot of good meet/group drives, but setting one up even closer to home would be cool

They're called WEDS SPORTS TC105N. I put a pic of them in the "clean s2k" section too. Like i said in the other post, i've never seen anyone else with them. I was gonna get them to be a pioneer, but I got something else instead. Aj-racing was the only place that had them in stock. They have the perfect sizing too. 17x8+45 and 17x9+49. I think they'd look awesome on a GPW. I've got a berlina...they'd look great on pretty much any color, but i ended up wanting gold. DO IT.
