Default 3RD Gen GS w/ CCW SP500

What do you guys think of CCW SP500 on the 3rd gen GS?



I think this is a pretty good idea. Just wanted to see what you guys thought.

Yeah i thought so too. I just wasnt sure. I want something that will look good forever. I dont want to go with a fad. Just something to give the car an extra pop. Ive been struggling with this for a long time. The good thing is these are a LITTLE bit cheaper than the others i was interested in. Spring is coming up, i think it would be a good time.

I think they would look great on the 3GS, even better if you do a BBK along with it

Mind telling me what breaks you have installed on that and the price for those, and the rims. I might actually consider....

What do you notice from the breaks? Loud squeaks? Better stopping?

Oh and don't worry, if I ever got those wheels, I'm in CO, not near you... So you won't think your car just drove past you....

It's a photoshop - if I get the right angles on certain images, I can work magic

Good lawd, Seize...that's a helluva photoshop. You CAN work magic.

As for the rims, I think the spokes are too thin. GS profile is so tall and bulky that i think the GS needs more spoke width to offset, unless you get 7 or 9 spokes.

Just my $.02...
