I just got my Enkei GTC01's installed today. I bought them from another GP owner who was parting out their vehicle. The rims are very light in weight. Next year I am going to go with a 245/45/18 instead of the 245/40/18 currently on the rims. I am hoping the taller side wall will help the ride and fill up some of the gap. I still have my F-Body brakes and suspension to be installed and it will look bad ass!

What do you guys think?

Good choice! They look very nice and will even look better with some newer tires :)

I'm pretty sure those are GM mud flaps available at most dealers.

Front GM PART # 12498918
Back GM PART # 12498919

New suspension on the way. Going with Comp G struts, SCC lowering springs and GMPP rear sway bar. Also, getting shorter dog bones and anit-pogo washers. I know it will look and handle better that it does
