    Your trans hates you.

    There are just so many better looking rims out there that can make the car pop and want people to look at them.

    But hey you atleast more than tripled the rotating mass per tire on that car, made it slower and hurt the tranny. Reminds me of driving in the hood, lol.

    I do like that color car tho, wish mine was kinda like that.

    Nice looking car, but those rims could hypnotize somebody. And if it was lifted with 22s, then your car would officially be from the ghetto with those rims. Clean car for sure though.

    my experience i do find a lot of people dislike them... but i have been pulled over and asked about them on the daily. Heck i have a picture somewhere in my computer of 2 police me taking a picture with me because they thought they were un-real!

    Its not so much that I don't like them, its more your transmission isn't going to like them in the long run, the 4t65e is already made of glass and turning those heavy assed rims doesnt help it any.

    I hope a shift kit and trans cooler are on you "to do" list. If not, I would start saving for a TEP trans........start saving anyway because the shift kit and cooler only prolong the inevitable.

    You have a built trans in it already or you put in a cooler and a shift kit?
