So i have a sad story about the GTP, nothing motor, nothing body, but the rims were hurt. i curbed it , i was going around this turn and usually it never has gravel or anything on it, well me not noticing gravel, i punched it because i seen this Z28 up ahead. well i lost controll, and hit the curb at 45mphish, cracked both passenger side rims, and blew out the tires, a big chunk flew off the rear rim, its lost somewhere on 36th street. so as of now im looking for new rims, kinda looking at hyperblack rims, i want some black ones to set off the car. just make it look hot, so if you guys have any ideas for some sweet, but light rims let me know. i will have pics up of the trashed rims asap, they are currently at my uncles right now so when i head over there ill snap some pics of the rims. HERE ARE THE PICS! TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK

Don't you have another set of rims? I thought I heard you mention something about you have a extra set of rims, I might be wrong though.

i have another set of 20's but im selling them because i dont want them anymore, plus they dont have tires on them. i want another set of 18's, some nice black ones, that are somewhat lightweight, with the same Nitto tires i had.

Damn, the curb was hungry for a passenger car instead of a 18 wheeler!
