Nice rims, nice color, haha, blue power! JUST KIDDING! Well, anyways, the next step for your car is to slightly if not drop your car. I think it would look a lot cleaner if you lowered it a bit. Thats just my opinion on things, but very nice!

why'd you go from bbs to rota's? they both look good (if the 3rd pic was the bbs), tough choice...

225/45 doesn't sound right. Got some gearing advantage though.

awesome wheels.

the gold really goes well with the blue paint.
my only tiff is that they look rather small. But if it works for autocrossing more power to you.

looks nice, the gold on blue really does look good.

Speedsource uses a 17X8 setup for their Grand Am car, so it is a proven combo. But it does look small for everyday use.

Did you update your pictures? cuz the 3rd pic looks like it's not lowered. S-techs should be sittin the front down.

thanks everyone for the nice things ya guys said.

It is lowered but i am going to get spacers to bring out the wheels 5 MM.

The drive is amazing, its faster, better turn in, steering feels lighter.
