Here are some pictures of some wheels I am having custom made for my Grand National. It been a long journey but we are almost there.
I will be posting more pictures of the wheels on the car later on today.
Enjoy! Let me know if you think I did a good job.
Btw
18x8.5/3.5 inch lip front 18x10/5 inch lip rear.
3 piece forged wheels.
Thanks

Very nice looking. IMO lower that a inch or so and the stance would be bang on.

Sweet wheels. I'll go against the grain here and say I like the ride height where it is, GN's look better with some ground clearance to em.

Looks great. What size tires you running? I agree with others that you should drop it a little front and back.

Care to share who made your wheels? I'd love a set for my GTA... Those are gorgeous!

I am not a GTA owner, but I do have some GTA wheels on my 2nd Gen Firebird. AND I will second the motion of asking "Who made those wheels?"

Saw this on turbobuick.com. Think they are the same wheels.
