Re: my new GTA
Nope, but i want to be. Just got my first car towed to my house yesterday. Gonna post some pics up when the weather is nice and i've got time. I'm also waiting on my credit card approval so i can register online or whatnot. but if any of you are sellin' them i'm interested. can you tell me the width of them? because I think i've got oversized back tires and if the tires cant fit the rims, whats the point.

Re: my new GTA
The crosslace wheels are 16 x 8. Stock tire is a 245/50, lots of people go to 255/50 on them.
Next step up (street) is the 295/50R16 BFG H-rated tire. Nice width, boring tread pattern. No size in-between, but the 295s WILL fit. Recommended wheel size is 8"-10". So they fit within BFGs recommended specs. I've even eun them before. They look good & I will be getting the 295s for my back 2 spare wheels, some day, nless I get some R-compound that come in 265/275/285.

Re: my new GTA
Yeah, i decided to take a look. The reason the back tires looked to big is because they're 255/60R15's and they stick out a bit, compared to 215/(some aspect ratio? 65R30?) in the front which are closer together. so I suppose they'll fit. The rims I've got on now look like drag rims they're like solid silver with the holes in em, they're not bad looking though.

Re: my new GTA
Woah, i just looked it up, I got some pretty sick rims that came with my car. Weld Draglites are some dang light aluminum rims. Considering I've got 4 of them, and they go for 200+ bucks. I paid 1300 for my car, not bad.

Re: my new GTA
Are they Welds, or knock offs. I bought a set of Draglites, and they're alot different then knockoffs. You'd find out quickly when you hit a pothole and bend one or not.

Re: my new GTA
that was me! im still contemplating selling them, cause i plan on autocrossing this car in the summer so i might keep the rims for track tires but if the right offer comes, then i will sell them. they have brand new tires on them too.
