    All this crap about lifted Grand Prixs on massive wheels must be comming from the same person under different names and if this even midly gets to be a trend Ill sell my GP in a heartbeat!! Go wreck some MonteCarlos like in the rest of the rap videos. Both Rap and anything over 20 in a GP is absolutly retarded.
    Also notice this guy has super dark glasses and not smiling lol Id give my self black eyes and knock out my own teeth before some one else did if I dressed like that. Kinda reminds me of this guy

    Bigger rims do NOT make the car go faster FACT! the change in the amount of time it takes the wheel to make a rotation is thrown off and the speedo doesnt compensate unless you change the wheel speed sensor. with my 17's the speedo says im going 2 mph fast than i really am when im over 45mph, i checked with my gps.

    Certain 20s can look good, most of the 20"+ cars I see are in the air.

    yes, to each his own, but im trying to prove a point that big rims can look good and DO look good when done right. now, when the car is lifted to clear those big wheels then i do not approve.

    2 tone paint job looks good the wheels are good too simple split 5 spokes I think 20's and more rubber would have nailed it. I also do agree with the people that say anything over 20's just tend not to look good this one pulled off 22's pretty well. And last but not least thank god its not just another grandprix with mustang wheels!!

    That's what I pretty much see around here, has made my taste for big wheels to be almost non existent really.

    Really for me for big wheels to look good the car itself has to be low, not just smaller wheel gap. Pretty much tucked wheels.

    Bio if those rims were 20's it would look alot better. those 22's arnt bad on that grand prix, but that blue and white one is just plain dumb.

    Yeah, bio... the car looks good because it is done right and the two tone is nice... but I mean, it would just looks so much better with 18s or 19s imo. Any way you do it, I think 22"+ just look way too big.

    i agree that i would rather them be 20s, but you cant say that the car is ugly because the rims are too big. with 20s on the car you would be able to lower it more and it wouldnt sit so high off the ground. even with my 19s on the car sat higher than it did with the 16s with the same overall diameter tires.

    So uh, maybe I'm not thinking this through, but how can bigger size wheels make the car sit higher if the overall tire diameter is the same?
