What do you think of this rim? I'm pretty sure you will say get other wheels but I dig that wheel wink

personally i dont like those wheels in chrome...and like u said we will probably say go with the torque stars if you are going to get stock wheels....so ya i say try and find another set of torque stars or go with an aftermarket wheel.

I don't know. I just find it on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310045799639&_trksid=p2759.l1259

About star rims... I already have one for 2001. So, I don't think I need other one. I'm not big fan of aftermarket rim. I'm pretty much stock wheel person that look good on our grand prix. I like tri-spoke and star rims.

Interesting... Never seen those before but they look pretty good! The tri-star rims are definitely growing on me, the more I see them the more I like them.

Whoa, that's weird.

They do come in high polished, I have a set, but .. the secondary parts should be gray.



Wonder what the story is there.

Arcs aren't exactly hipo, they're more 'brushed.' It's cleared metal, but not super reflective like the original post.

I'm going to give a shot for this. I already buy it now so if I don't like it then I can give it back for refund. They are from California so it will take while to shipping at Ohio. It also say OEM wheels? I would surprise it is might be a rare wheels? I will get a good pictures of them than ebay one photo.

Today, I saw tan (my apt parking), silver (my apt parking) and white (on road) grand prix with polish with gray on it. I'm only one in silver paint so it is time for get shine one. Should I worry about silver and tan cars that might see my new shiny rim that they might steal it? lol

Those are chromed OEM wheels. You can get a local wheel shop to do that to your ally wheels for around $60/wheel
