I bought the black 19" set for my IOM GT. I'm waiting for the lugs to show up so I can get the tires mounted and get them on the car. I'll post up pics once they're on.

not a lot of style to them, but it is a fairly clean look. they just seem a bit generic, something I'd expect to see on a maxima or accord ya know. the black ones look far better and get my vote

The rivet look is getting old IMO. Other than that, not bad.

Yeah l concur...that's a classic 5 spoke but it looks too common for today styles. It lacks that pop!

Any chance of bumping the Drift-R up to 20's???

I like classic style. Half of these new wheels are too busy looking and will look dated in a few years.

The new DR-2 will be available in 20" for the G8 shortly. The DR-2 is being made in 18" at the moment.

I finally got the wheels on the car a few weeks ago and got some pics of it this weekend. These are the 19" with the factory Bridgestone's on them. The Silver/black/red DeZeyno center caps were ugly so I found some Transformer Autobot ones in black and aluminum to replace them.

Is it just me or does the tread look like it's going the wrong way?

GETGONE

It's not. They're asymetrical tread. They only have an outside and an inside to mount them on the rims. That way you can rotate them side to side and front to back.

Not a fan of either of those wheels. I'm yet to see an aftermarket wheel on the G8 that I like as much as the stock 19" (just wish I could have gotten these with all season tires :-(, so I had to go with the 18s

The stock 19's are just too chunky in the spokes. They'll make good winter wheels though.

I'm pretty picky with wheels ... but I like these !

I think you should debadge the "Pontiac" off the rear .. .and make the "G8" badge on the rear black as well ...

Then tint the windows .. .and you'll have a great overall setup ...

Good job !

Been debating on taking off the Pontiac. Wife kind of likes it. I have tint, just need to install it. I hate black badging. I like the chrome badges and window trim. It gives it just enough pop without being gaudy and overdone.
