Hey guys! I was wondering, has anyone put any deep style rims on their GTP? I really like the style of those. Also really wide tires as well. If so, what brands did you use, and how much? That would be so helpful, thanks guys!! Ref pics below

really depends on the width and offset to determine how easily youll be able to run them.

It's hard to get a very deep lip on our cars since they are fwd.
05-12-2011
Yeah that's true, in that case I would like to just get as deep as I can without doing anything harmful or shredding my tires.

youd need to do alot of fenderwork to aquire a very deep dish look. its pointless really.
as deep? research. there are some wheels that will have a pretty big lip if you go with a 9'' wide wheels, but the offset will be pretty low (i wouldnt go lower than +35) and you will need to roll your fenders to stop rubbing and lower the car a bit to make it look good.

idk I like deep dish and I don't at the same time.
These are 18x9's and will require work to the fender. Stock ride height.

i could fit some wheels with a big lip on a gp easy.
hell, i fit wheels with a 3" lip on my little baby mobile.

it can be done, just doesnt look right on our cars
05-12-2011
looks right with the right wheels. and being low.

Yes, the 18x9s by doOriginally Posted by Bio248

Doesnt..lol

well I don't necessarily want rims so deep you can put your foot in haha, but just something less than R.O.C.'s Black BMW pic depicts lol. Thanks for the info though guys it helps a lot!

I know this is the incorrect year, but higher (not bagged) and this would be the perfect look that I'd like to try to go for. BTW I do have the 98 GTP so it's probably way different of displacement and everything else lol. Just a thought though.

The wheels from an 04+ will fit a 97-03 and vice versa. Also the 5x114.3 mm bolt pattern has wheels with a larger lip.

I have actually found some really good looking GTPs and GTs with this style of Rims, so thanks a bunch guys!
