They are over-used, no question - but then again, it's all about personal preference. I just wish I had the means to manufacture wheels for the W-body community...

EDIT: I had them, too.

better get them before they decide to obsolete them.

I have yet to see them on a GP on the road. But as long as you like'em... who cares!! Congrats
Don't your pontiac caps fit?

You will notice that your tires like to ride in the grooves of the road. EX. If you drive by a quarry that has alot of full dump trucks on it, your car will pull into the groove/low spot on the road. At least mine do, but I think it has alot to do with the tire compound... and mine are hard. Kuhmo Ecsta SPT 245/45/17

You've never seen a GP with bullitts on it? Interesting...really. As for the center caps - the GP's do not fit. However, the GA's, do.

I meant I have never seen one in person, i.e. on the road/in real life.
I ALWAYS check out 97-03 grand prixs when they drive by... most still have stockers or those 18"s chrome ones that everyone else has.
That kinda look like these

I like the torque stars better.

not bad the bullit are really played out

that's a really good picture with the bullitts. i'm not a big fan of them, but i think they look better on a gp than a mustang lol.

i still think 18" torque stars = win. and i want them.
