Eh, Each to their own imo. Depends on the body shape too. |

Haha I have no idea man, Hence why I'm changing it back. I was thinking about this, Just sticker it up like the motor in the sedan but I also wouldn't mind dressing mine up like your's with the finned covers and what not. Still undecided. I'm putting pursuits on or if I find a good set of convo et's cheap i'll slap those on. P.s. I need you to order me wheel spacers and wheel nuts I saw that on ebay and can say I'm not really a fan, Maybe if it were a single light front and no visor haha. Won't need to change the hubs if I run spacers. Pursuit rims fit on the back fine, It's just the front. Spacers are just illegal, not worth the hassle, 15 x7 pontiac GTS type rims look mint and in the HQ era. Single headlight, GTS rims with 235/65/15's would look spot on and be legal, but if you want to run pursuit rims, commodore hubs up front, and change rear diff to borg warner (banjo and cheesesticks be gone) and change stud pattern if can't get right axle length. |

You do know the Pontiac rally rims or "GTS" as you cal them are basically exactly the same as the HQ GTS rims |

I used to buy the gutter smacked rims and cut the centres out for this purpose, set them up on a wheel balacing machine to get them spot on before the final welding, then the long painting process........but they always looked great, 350 silver metallic and Charcoal grey blackouts. |

Eh, I'm not really a fan of the gts rims tbh. I'm leaning more towards running weld drag lites but finding a good set is hard. I want to look at my ute and get the tough impression from it and I don't think i'd get that from GTS rims haha. And running drag lites will also eliminate the whole running spacers thing. |

Yeah ill be welding up the holes and just running no type of cover at all and also gts flutes in the guards. If your not putting a cover on it, definately get some "UPOL Raptor Liner", about $100-200 and your tray will look awesome |

Find some original steelies you funking dero bitch. Pursuit wheels look funking sh!t. They look sh!t as funk on your old mans statesman and they look sh!t as funk on anything else. Get some original steelies for funks sake, their not that hard to find and look a billion better. And redwalls? The funk its not a funking XY Falcon. Get some damn whitewalls bitch. Just go back to Neils and throw $40 in 10c coins at him and grab four HQ steelies. Jesus christ. Pursuit rims.. what the funk. WOW!!! settle down speed racer, Pretty sure Joel is entitled to put what ever rims he wants on his car... Considering you still owe me money for the steelies on your car, I'd shut your mouth. BTW Joel, good progress pics.... |

HAHA funk off bitch. Finish a car and then you can have your opinion! But yeah, No hq steelies. Every kingswood has kingswood steelies and it's funking boring. I like utes with pursuit rims so that's the go. If you find and buy me some convo et's I'll gladly put them on and burn the pursuits. Are you running a commodore or HQ pattern diff? |
