Hey I got a 2005 GTO last summer and I am finally getting done with school and can now start upgrading my car. Any reccomendations on rims/tires for me car?

CCW 505a are my personal favorite with BFG KDW NT's. The CCW's are expensive but I think they are the most beautiful rim for our car. A short search of the wheel section should yield a few results.

I bought the 505s, but I also like the Beyern 5s in chrome, Drift Rs in black, and the TSW Thruxtons. All three are available in staggered 19s.

Expensive might be a bit of an understatement, but yes, I think they look the best next to the ROH Drift R's and Beyern's.

The OEM 18" wheels look nice too ;) :D

I know this is off subject but look into the 06 tails. They looks AWSOME on the 05 Yellows.

I really like the 505's and think they look great on GMMillwright's yellow jacket. Just wondering if you'd say they are worth the extra bucks or would a diff rim and tire be better-

Well CCW's are lightweight extremely high quality wheels and they know their GTO's. But the other companies all make quality wheels too, I think it comes down to what design you like.

what size tires do you have on there, and do you have any springs

did you need a camber for the back?

Damn those Vortex look great!

If you mean eccentric trailing arm bushings - no not yet. The wear is surprizingly even and I lifted the rear .25" so that helps also. If it starts to wear unevenly then I'll get and install the bushings.

I think any black spoke/polished lip rim looks great on the YJ and that's where I'm heading with mine when I get the rest of the list finished.
