Thread: Ground Control and GXP Wheels

Ok Guys its been a while, and I have been to a few meets so there have been some folks that have seen this setup.

I believe im the First and only to be Lowered and on a 275 Series tire on a GXP wheel.

Enjoy the pics

















Im enjoying the setup so far!

now that is a gorgeous car. how far did you tint your windows if i may ask? and did you get it done at a shop or yourself?

lowered on ground control springs (or coilovers)? or what is your suspension setup?

Looks GREAT! Very tasteful. One of the nicest Bonnevilles I have seen.

I just hate the front bumpers on those. A GXP bumper would be a big improvement! Something about how the stock bumper flows with the fog lights just drives me crazy

LOL you think that any company is going to support a Bonneville....good one. They are Eibachs that are for another platform with Bonneville GXP struts

ground control coilovers produce a coilover sleeve that is universal. you can put it on whatever you want. eibachs look good, though.

how are you with rubbing with those 275s?

Understood..Wrong use of terms however, i dont have a strut in the rear, only a coil spring and a Air Assisted shock

and there is NO rubbing at all with the 275, Remember the Bonneville is much different than a W body

well i agree that it is much different, bigger tires normally mean more likelihood to rub. however, you're still on a pretty high offset, so i can see that working fine.

yup its a +42mm offset

Love the car man, I want a bonneville so bad and yours looks so nice!! What's that offset mean? that the center of the rim is more to the inside?
