Hey guys I'm new here so I want to first say hi to everyone. Second heres my first post and I need your guys opinions. I own a 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix GT. She is my baby and I want her to look good. About 2 weeks ago I changed tires on my car and my dad had spare rims off his 2003 Monte Carlo Dale Earnhardt Edition. Well I took his original rims and put them on mine. Some people say they look good and some say they dont. For me they dont look right, I dont know why but they dont. I kept my original rims and I'm thinking of putting them back on. What do you guys think? Monte Rims on a Grand Prix?

Find some pics of the rims online womewhere that you put on. What did you have on the car perviously?
And much agreed with Ordonez, put on what YOU think looks good.

I don't know what the Intimidator rims look like, so I can't comment. Need pics!

It's a 5 spoke, can't look too bad.

I think they might look pretty good on the GP. They DO have that Pontiac spear look to them. Set it off with the Pontiac center caps.
See if you can't get us some pictures with them on your car. Find a friend with a digital camera if yours is broken!
Pics pics pics.
