... 1988/1989 Bonneville SSE rims and I was wondering what they might look like ... hell, I didn't even go check yet to see what the Bonneville bolt pattern and offset if so it might not work but I assumed they would be SIMILAR to that of a Grand Prix so I felt it might work ... anyway, there are two 'junked' Bonnevilles a couple houses away from me and I thought, if I decided they look nice, to go make an offer as the cars are simply sitting there rusting away to dust :lol: ... anyway, here is a quick Photo Shop that I did for evaluation purposes :)

i would say no, i wouldnt invest in older rims, i would get a cheap set of 17's if ur gonna go that way or save up and get 18s

Thanks for the comment on the hood :)

In regards to the rims ... I like to modify a car with factory parts from other cars so the Bonneville rims would actually suit "my style" but I am unsure of the look ... to be honest, I am not sure if I actually like the look or not ... sort of looks a little too much like white walls which I do like on 'some' cars; although certainly not my Grand Am ;)

I don't think I really like em. Just not my style.

Sorry but... :barf: I'm all for you getting parts from other cars but red on red is just not attractive to me. You need to something that compliments your car, not something that, imo, makes it look bad.

HAHA ... tell me what you really feel :rofl2: ... yeah, I know what you're saying but that was the style for that year Bonneville (actually, that was the style for several different Pontiacs through a couple years there) ... the more I see it, the less I like it :(

I like them. I liked my gold Grand Prix wheels I had on my SE.

Kelly didn't you just get your GT wheels? lol

And I know what you mean, I'm totally a factory upgrade kind of guy. I've always wanted some '00 SSEi 17"s for Leannes car.

I don't know about the older Bonni's but the newer ones required a 25mm spacer.
