    I just want to know if these rims will fit on a 2006 grand prix. I know alot of people do it with no problems while others have problems, but i want to know personal experiences.

    I would totally get them. These rims retail for $1000+ each, there like really expensive. I would buy them but i still need to buy new tires, im still going to see what im going to do. but check out the ad: 20" RIMS 5x114.3 Nissan Mercedes Infiniti Mustang Lexus $900 FIRM

    EDIT: Lets say i do get these rims, what tire size should i get for these rims if i have a 2006 grand prix gt?

    I love this subject! From what i've read, as long as you don't drive the car hard and use centering rings, you should be okay. If you auto-x or drag the car on a regular basis, it is a good idea to stick with what's designed to fit.

    How would you guys know if it will fit, if you dont even know the offset? Does the offset even matter?

    Is the +45 shown in the first picture not the offset? I think it is, which means they should fit great

    I photoshopped the rims on my Prix, and OMG they look BAD AS F**K. BONER to the f**kin CORNER lol.

    But is $900 w/out tires too much?

    I did some research and they do retail for $1000+ each rim which is crazy

    However he said he needs time to think about it, because he is thinking of putting them on his car.

    I just dont know how i will be able to afford new tires, they gonna cost like $700 im guessing

    tires will be expensive, but so worth it once you get those on. its late in the season, you can always store them and put them on next season like i am doing.

    That'd be great. This really is my first time putting on 20"s and dont know what i should get. Im looking for low profile, but im also looking for lip protection, i dont want it low enough to where if i hit a small pot hole it will easily crack.

    I was thinking 245/45/20 or 235/35/20?

    Isnt that a little too thin? i googled that tire size to get an idea how it looks and its kinda too low profile. I think 245/45/20 is the best option because i really DONT want to ever damage these expensive rims.

    These rims are very light for 20's and im still going to be able to use my supercharger , however i must watch out for the potholes that we have here in Detroit, MI .
