GTA on RPM 505 wheels

Was time for tires so I decided to update the car a little. RPM 505s. 18x9 rear 18x8 front. wheels are 38mm offset, I ran 1.5" spacers in front and 1" in the rear. Tires are 245/40/18 front and 265/40/18 rear. Rear fitment is nearly perfect, front will be perfect once I get the big brakes on that space the front hubs out another 1/2".

I masked and painted the wheels gold, you can't guy them in this color. I'm in the process of making a set of center caps that will have the same WS6 emblems as the original wheels had.

Very nice. I have always thought if I had a white GTA I would paint some wheels gold to match the emblems. I've been telling a friend of mine to try it with his.

I'm bringing this one back from the dead.

Those wheels looks great, curious what they'd look like in a 17" and also curious where you bought them.


Thanks!
