I think I'm gonna go cheap and get the 17" Chrome Ronal R41s for my GTO and just use the tires off my stockers. I really can't afford to get 18's right now at $2400.00. The 17's shipped wil be $1425...a little easier on the wallet.

Any pics of 17 or 18" Chrome R41s on anyone's GTO?

We only have 3 guys on this board with R41s. None of them are chrome.
The sterling silver really pops though. Really really bright in sunlight.

yeah...so those guys GTO's with the rims...looks really sharp for a not that expensive rim. One of the few I actually like. It would be a PERFECT rim if it had a like a 1-2" lip and the spokes were inset....but you can't have everything. :)

I'm waiting to hear on a price from a local dealer and then I'll be ordering them...with pics to follow. :) Yellow Jacket with chrome should look sweet.

There are plenty of 18" wheels out there that will run you $1500 shipped with rubber.

Don't settle.

Yeah...but I'm very picky. You can show me 500 wheels..and I'll like one or none of them. I just want a simple looking 5 spoke cobra-ish looking wheel.

077's are nice but for FWD....the R41's are the only ones I really like out of all the wheels I've seen.

You're picky, but while you would rather have 18" wheels with a 1-2" lip and inset spokes, you're willing to spend $1500 on 17" wheels that lack those qualities altogether. ;)

I'm just giving you guff, but my opinion is that if you can't afford the wheels you really want, then wait until you can. When all is said and done, it's your choice, really, and I hope you're able to find what you're looking for.

Doric...i knwo what you're saying....the thing is I can't find any 18" with 1-2" lip and inset spokes taht I like :) Even though the R41's don't have it...i still like the style.

Only thing is now...i got a 3000.00 tax bill in last night tahts due soon...I think i have to hold off on the wheels now :(
