Those rims are definatly nice, but i see snow in the background, and the trwad on your tires doesnt seem to match the weather conditions, i hope you dont slide and smack them into a curb...

the tread on the tires is actually great. they are mud and snow rated. i took it out the day b4 in the snow and was doin 20mph and swervin back and forth and the car was huggin the road nicely. i love these tires and for the price you cant go wrong. as for the question to whether or not these were someone elses rims, no, they are brand new. im not sure who rob is, but if they are the 185 series, then its the same style. but they are brand new

I love the Eagle alloys also, and have been torn between the 077's and the 185's. I have a Black 03 GT 4dr, and am leaning towards the 185's since not as many people have them. Blackgt2k, get the Pontiac center cap decals made for those rims and complete the look. www.grafxwerks.com

i like those, my buddy has them on his black acura and they look real nice..another thing i like about them is there isn't a whole ton of detail on the rim, so they're easy to clean also!

Really good-looking wheels. They compliment the car quite well.

i guess im the only one that dosent like them... i couldnt spend that much on rims, let alone rims that you have to take a second look at to know that there not stock... thas why i dont like the 077's as well... but, to each his own.

i like the fog pict, but w/ my luck somone would come around that corner and......

When I had them with 245/45/17 BFG Comp T/A's they weighed 53lbs. My stock GA rims with Potenza's weigh 55lbs, for a aftermarket rim its pretty light ;)

the road that i took this pic on is my own. theres only 2 houses on this street and a 1/4 mile stretch of nothing. this is where i do all my testing because no one goes down to the end of it. as for the rims and their cleaning. they are a pain in the a**. my town uses a lot of sand to clean the snow and when it rains, it turns to mud...literally! though i clean my car once a week and make sure i get the rims each time. takes about a 1/2 hour to an hour to completely clean them and polish.

I really love the photos! the fog really accents the look of the car, looks like you did a calendar shoot ;)

Looks really cool in that setting in the first pics, should've had the foglights on though....god I love a black GA with the foglights on...they are soooo sexy!!!

very very nice, I like the look a lot. I'm purchasing 077's in chrome off a friend here in march/april. I can't wait, do you have a drop on the car yet? If so what kind? I'm thinking about those springtech sprints/struts someone posted in another forum, was like 300$~ for the lowering springs and struts. Anyhow, good clean looking ride, hope you get GA of the week.

blackgt2k
01-23-2005, 11:03 PM
the car has no drop at all, for some reason the car still has a low look and im not about to go pay tons of money to drop the car 1 inch. id rather spend the money on something else. plus i get tons of people asking me if the car is lowered. if others think the car is lowered by them just looking at it, then its fine to keep. but thanks everyone for the compliments. oh and about the cleaning issue. YES they are easy to clean, yet it takes roughly 15-20 minutes each rim to clean. that is if i want to keep them in the same shape that they are...
