OFFICIAL: wheel/tire picture thread... show em off!

[GlockandRoll]

I'm still trying to figure out what GNX sized rims to go for, and who to get them from. Kirban said his wheels are all fronts, sized 245 and 255/50 rears = OEM on the GNX.

I'm also thinking about going for a GNX clone look to have the gauges in the dash.

Feedback is appreciated.

I really want the stance of my car like this!!

That is an attractive stance, I've just got to have 18's like Scott W has or 16" GNX wheels, I'm not really seeing anything else I like.

hello; Mario65 all I see is a red X and maybe because I'm at work could be the problem. I like that white one too. Are those wheels black? White cars are growing on me.
I'd like to see more.

hello; I got a question. Cumming to work the other day there's a Porsche being trailered to the track I believe. Any way it had stickers all over it and one being BBS. I know BBS is in favor of alot of roadracers but I don't think I've seen the rim on a TB. There are rims that are close but not the real deal.
any comments or are they out there.
