Hey guys, I just got my first car, a white 1998 Grand Prix GT. I was wondering what spoiler and/or hood you guys would recommend. Also, what site is the best to look for wheels. I like the chrome 077's on 3800performance, but was wondering if there was anywhere I could get them for less.

You know what I'm going to say on the spoiler. As for wheels, I got my hands on a set of the factory 16" Torque Stars. If you're wanting aftermarket, 17" Bullits are my favorite. Anything with a 5-star pattern will look great though. Just don't go bigger than 18" rims.

Negative, they don't have the GTX spoiler.

Alright, I have another question. I have been looking at wheels and noticed some people say 5x4.5 is 5x115 and others say it is 5x114.3. Which is it and does it matter?

GP wheel pattern is 5x115.
mustangs are 5x114.3, which is a direct bolt on for the GP's.

http://bigwheels.net/ is a good site to look at to get an idea what you like. You can put in your model year and such and it will list wheels from a bunch of different manufacturers. After figuring out what wheel you want, check ebay and then get the tire shops in your local area to fight one another on price. smile

I personally would probably not buy my wheels off of ebay for the simple fact of shipping costs if there is an issue down the road. If you buy from a local guy, they take care of the shipping to the manufacturer if there is an issue.

Good luck on your wheel search.

5x114.3=5x4.5
5x115 = 5x4.58 or something
