| The guy I bought my Riv off of originally is a friend of mine. He bought another Pearl white rive and slapped a set of these on in 20's. Can you say PIMP?! http://www.myatltires.com/images/wheels/boss/338.jpg | |

| Thanks. I am proud of my Riv's age indicators! When I am old and gray, I'm not using just-for-men hair coloring. I will be a silver fox!

| Maybe, but the yellow corners never really bothered me that much. Will sleep on it some more... if everyone thinks they need to be clear, I guess they will need to be fixed. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

I think that picture is actually a Photoshop job. I like the rims, at least from that angle. I saw a lowered Riv the other day with sporty rims and it looked incredibly cool - not in a cheap, ghetto wagon kind of way, just cool - like wow! what a cool car! So I'm thinking about lowering mine an inch or so. The only problem is that my driveway has a 40 degree incline and I already scrape the rear exhaust if I don't pull into it at a certain angle. | |

| That's affirmative!
Unfortunately they are a 5x120 bolt pattern and tricky to get in manageable sizes for this car but If I see an opportunity, I want to get em. I'd be willing to buy the centric hub adapters if I can get my hands on the right rims. 18" or 19" x the smallest width possible like 8.5" would be perfect. As equipped on the vettes, they are different sizes front to rear so that doesn't help. | |

| may be better to have them re-drilled to our bolt pattern. pretty common for VW guys to do that if they find a rim they like. _________________ 1996 with 254k miles, L32 4" FWI -> ported N* -> Ported Gen V w/3.0" Pulley, Stage 3 Phenolic I/C, ZZP FMHE, 1.84 RR, Headers and 3" pipe to mufflers, F-body brakes, and lowered on Eibachs. -RIP AMG C400 White on black.
