2005 GXP Spring Cleaning

Post by PhinkBigger »

Had the car on the lift this weekend to put new pads/rotors on all 4 corners...decided to throw my brothers Sport Edition KV5's on to see how they looked! He may never get them back :twisted:

Sorry for the quality but my phone was all I had....

Looks amazing! Those wheels look even better than the GXP rims.

Thanks! I can't wait to have another weekend to fully detail it, it needs a buff and wax pretty bad. If I'm not mistaken, those rims were inspired by the rims on the Bonneville GXP concept...that I wish would have made it into production :dontknow:

You MUST keep those wheels. Hard to find them in 18s since they only make them in 17 and 20 now.

Give him the GXP wheels, he won't notice. :P

I like those wheels too (Jovan had them in his SLE), but I still prefer the cleaner looking GXP spokes better.
