    i was thinking about putting some bonneville gxp rims on my GP but i was also thinking about liquid metal rims that looked kinda like the GXP. well anyway thats the kind of style i want. if you know any good kinds and that fit the GP please post a picture or website so i can look at them. i been looking for the right rims for almost a year now and i want other peoples opinion too.

    Sport edition kv5's. Bolt pattern is 5x114.3 and the offset is +45 which will fit.

    the KV5 is as close as you're going to get. GXP wheels are gawdy anyway with those stupid fake bolts in them.

    you should lower it before you get wheels. bigger wheels pronounce the not being lowered, a lot.

    Honestly I was thinking about putting DNA springs on it. Unless anyone else knows any decently good springs for cheap.

    springs being ~$250 isn't expensive from the get go. get good springs (SSC, B&G, eibach), it's not something you want to cheap out on. those DNA springs are junk.
