#29 of 65 Will 2006 GXP wheels fit my 2001 Grand Prix? by mmstidham Jun 16, 2006 (3:45 am)
I've got a line on a new set of GXP wheels and I like the way they look. My Torque star wheels have been bent by the Indiana pot holes so I need to replace them regardless. I know they will fit clearance wise but I'm not sure the bolt pattern is the same. Has anyone tried this yet? Thanks. Replies to this message: chats1 (Jun 16, 2006 6:09 am)

Replying to: mmstidham (Jun 16, 2006 3:45 am) I have a 2006 GXP, but sorry cannot answer your question. I have no idea, but I would think no. All the engineering put into this car has to do with the the wheels/tires, etc. Could you please tell me the price of the four wheels? Are they forged alloy? Are you sure that they are genuine GXP wheels? The GXP is not your standard Grand Prix. Chats1
#31 of 65 gxp wheels by mmstidham Jun 16, 2006 (12:26 pm)
I know they are genuine because I am taking them off the car personally. It was totalled by the insurance company. They are the Chrome 5 spoke with the socket head cap screws on either side of every spoke. I'm paying $100 for the set with tires. Replies to this message: chats1 (Jun 19, 2006 5:39 am)

Replying to: mmstidham (Jun 16, 2006 12:26 pm) that's cheap because each tire runs about $250 plus because I just checked, and the wheels alone are about $1,000 each.
#33 of 65 Tire Rims, torque, balancing: Question by mbissonnette Jul 24, 2006 (2:53 pm)
Hi, I have a GP GT 2003 (3800) - (P225 60R 16) wheels and I'd like to buy winter rims for my winter tires, therefore I could do the switch myself in the spring and the fall.   I would like to do this the right way and make sure that I do not damage my rotors (e.g. if improperly tightened), etc...   As far, what I know: - Tighten wheel nuts in a crisscross sequence. - Wheel torque (100 ft lb), from my car manual/guide. - Rotation, from my car manual/guide.   Questions: i) The work (rims switch) will occur on the ground. Should it be done when the car is elevated (hoist) ??   Reason: I read (somewhere) that it made a difference for special rims, like chrome rims.   ii) The Tires/Rims will be balanced initially, and I'd like to know if I should have them balanced every time I put them on (once a year), or for example every 2 or 3 years is good enought ??   Thanks in advance, Mike.

Replying to: mbissonnette (Jul 24, 2006 2:53 pm) I just saw this post. Did you guys get your questions answered? I need some winter wheels FOR my 2006 GXP.

Replying to: mbissonnette (Jul 24, 2006 2:53 pm) I'm ordering tires today for my wife's GXP. Tire Rack has a special $194 for the front tires. They currently offer Bridgestone Blizzak tires in the same (rare) combination of 255/45/18 front and 225/50/18 rear for winter driving, although most posters on this site say they drive fine with the regular (summer max performance) Bridgestone RE050A. I'm sticking with the summer tires year round, as we live in Atlanta, and snow is rare. Replies to this message: rmozol (Oct 22, 2006 9:14 pm)
