My sister just called me and she is thinking of picking up a '98 SE from her husband's side of the family. Best part... it has hipo torque stars and she said I can have them for free if I work on it. smile

Another GP to play with (little does she know). devilsmile

Man, that is not fair! I want me a set of those rims! I keep seeing gps around, and want to snage the rims and put mine on, haha. But I am not that kind of individual.

Well, it's also a 3100... So I have a whole spare engine w/accessories sitting around in perfect working order. They won't ever need to buy hard parts for it unless it's a starter.

Torque Star rim

Some think it is the better looking GP rim, but the weight of it is where most want it. It is the lightest of the GP wheels.

Very cool addition and nice rims, I hate the ones on the limited edition. I can't wait to replace mine.

I dunno. For some cars, I think the hipos look great.

But on others, like mine, I think the polished ones are just too much and that the painted ones look a lot better.

Im with Zerg, here. I much prefer the look of the paint with the red of my car. the hi-po looks GREAT on darker cars, white, and silver. I bet the Panther'll look GREAT with a set of hi-po, though. Once you get 'em installed, let us see the result!
