Thread: 17" on GXP

I was going to search for wheels, but I got sick of reacquiring their site because for some reason a customer of 15 years doesn't seem to rate good web service.

I was curious if any GXP owners are using 17" tires, either for winter or summer use?

Thanks, tires are a fun discussion.

I couldn't find any reasonably priced 17'' snow rims for my GXP but I did find a guy selling 2006 Monte Carlo SS rims so I picked 'em up and wrapped 'em in some Goodyear Eagle GT's. Considered some Blizzaks but they were too damn expensive.
