Throw some manlier wheels on that Barbados Blue Beauty of yours, meatier tires and dump the spoiler. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

By quoting humbler I assume you were refering to the blue GTO picture that he posted, which is Impulse, not Barbados. If you were refering to rexus31's pics, since he named the thread "...my '05 Goat" and Pontiac is not offering Barbados in '05, I am not sure what to think. Something is not quite right somewhere. Maybe rexus31 can set me right on the color of his car because unless the color is off on my monitor his isn't Barbados either. If it is Barbados then it shouldn't be an '05.

Anyway, I like many different wheels I have seen on the new GTOs but I also like the easy maintenance of my factory wheels. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

BTW rexus31: I am guessing yours is a Cyclone Gray '05. The color is very nice but a little more to the teal hint than I thought it would be. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

It is Cyclone Grey. It actually looks very similar to BMW's Steel Blue in person. I have gotten many positive comments on the color.

[QUOTE]Originally posted by humbler:
Yes, you did say Pontiac and I just wanted to clear that up.

&gt;&gt;&gt; I did say Pontiac but I clearly did not reference your wheels. They do look similar to Pontiacs' which was my point.

My daily driver you are calling butt ugly. I'd say that question applies.

&gt;&gt;&gt; Ok' I'll give you that one. Again though, my reference was to how these cars looked with the stock wheels and spoiler. I clearly did not call _your_daily driver butt ugly.

How would I be glad putting on wheels that I don't like? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

&gt;&gt;&gt; How would you know unless you saw them on there? You might be surprised at how much it would improve the appearance, just as many others are finding that out when removing the spoiler. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Whoa, serious semantics, here!
I know, you thought you were wrong once, but you were mistaken, right!? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I guess you can deduct from that what you want, I just thought those wheels looked awfully close to stock and I don't really care for the stock wheels at all. I don't why people go out and spend good $ on something that looks very similar to the original. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I actually like the stock wheels but just wanted something bigger. I chose the wheels because they looked similar to stock and are 19".
