    Hey guys, whats up? My names chad and i live in indianapolis. Im new to the forum thing. I just bought my 3rd grand prix. My 1st grand prix was a 98 gt. It was white with white 18's on it. I dont have any pictures of it.

    Here's my 2nd grand prix. Its was an 04 GT w/ 20's and other appearance mods


    And this is my new 04 GTP.


    Its going to get tinted in a couple weeks. And im currently looking for some 20's. If anyone has any for sale let me know...

    You're asking for a blow transmission with 20" rims on a GTP.
    It's a CUMMINS Dodge not a Dodge Cummins

    Really. Ive had 2 previous gp's and owned them both for 4-5 years and had not one single transmission slip or issue. I mean i didnt hot rod them around or anything, but they've been good to me.

    20's are too big I think.

    Go with some nice 18's.

    And this GTP makes a bit more power than the 98 gt and 04 gt.

    Go white GP's. I've got 2 of them. Disregard the tranny statement. People tend to speak sometimes and from no personal experience of their own. I agree 20's are a bit much, but it's your car. Do your thing bro!

    Maybe ill look for some of those GXP rims. Those are 18's right? Or maybe look for some really nice 19's.

    GXP rims would look nice. 20s are overkill.
