Finally! Got new rims on my GTA (pics within.....)

Well, i've actually had the rims and tires on the POS for about a month, but I finally got a chance to take the pictures. The rims are 17X8.5 polished Vortec Z's (kinda like mustang cobra rims in a gm bolt pattern) with 0 offset= no spacers! The rubber is kumho 255/40/17's. Forgive the picture quality, my digicam isn't that great.....

By calling it a POS, I am guessing you don't like your car..or did I read that wrong? Anyway, I'll be the first to say I don't like them on that car. To each their own though!
