What's up all??? I visit this site all of the time, but don't really post anything. Well yesterday i got around to putting my GTA Wheels on the Formula, what do you guys think?

Pictures are down a few posts...

 

You cannot link to pictures that are still on your computer (i.e. the My Documents folder). You can either upload them to outside webspace (such as uploadit.com or cardomain.com) and link to them, or you can upload them here using the "Attach file" feature. Keep in mind the rules when attaching a file though, only three attached images per thread are allowed. If you upload them elsewhere and link to them, post as many as you'd like (as long as they are third gen related, of course ).

 

thanks, here they are

looks hot

 

Not to be rude, but did you put the rims on correctly??? In the one pic of the drivers rear it looks like you have a front rim on the left rear. On the back of the rims in the crosslace portion it will say front or rear. Again, sorry if I am wrong, just going off the picture....

 

yes they are on correct, the fronts have a "deeper" dish than the rears. has something to do with the offsets? Correct me if i'm wrong

 

Yeah you are correct. In the picture to me it looked like you had the deeper rim on the back. My bad....how do you like the SP5000's????

 

i love the dunlop 5000's, the ride is smooth, good traction, and i love the tread design. I put 255's on the back, and kept the fronts at 245's. Not much difference but i can see it.

 

thanks alot!!

 

Yeah I bought mine in 2001 mainly beacuse I picked up a deal on them. They turned out to be a very good tire for the money. I had intended on replacing them but it looks like I will end up selling them still on my refinished GTA rims.

 

those wheels look immaculate.. did u buy them from like classic industries or something?

 

thanks, i bought 3 of them from classic, and 1 used. For some reason all of the fronts are on back order, and have been since early this year. I heard that they're not making them anymore...
So i bought a used front and spent about 6 hours on it.

 

Ive had 2 front GTA wheels on backorder from classic Ind for OVER a year,but im getting a good deal on them.So Im waiting for them no matter what.The word from classic is they are having trouble retooling the original dies/molds for the wheels.Thats why its taking SOOOOOOOO long.

 

nice looking rims and car

 

Will replace my 2 fronts.

 

for those that don't want to click on the link...

more...

 

last one...

 

why?? what's wrong? Looks good to me

 

You cant see it in the pic,but some of the clear has peeled.They were also repainted(by me).Otherwise they are fine no damage.they are also not as nice as the other 2 wheels(original black)

 

go ahead and follow the instructions on how to polish wheels on this site, (if you have the time) i had to do this for 1 front wheel, took about 6 hours

 

I did that once before,but i didnt like it too much maintenance.
