FINALLY! They are on!

17 x 7 Rays gram Lights 57 Pros
215/45 17 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3













I had to remove the gram Light stickers becuase it was completey out of place on my black cl. I also don't like the black rays lugs so I ordered some chrome ones. I thought they would look good, but chrome will bring out the polished lip and look more classy. So the rays are for sale $125 shipped. I can't even tell you how light the lugs are! The rays rims are ligher then stock rims, but the complete tire/wheel is heaver then my stock winter setup. I don't have the rays air caps on cuz i know they get jacked in 2 secs. The Goodyears stick to the road like glue. only prob is the wider tire/rim now throws stuff up on the side of the car cuz i have no debris guards. i was pissed the rims/tire setup jacked my wheel gap up a little and i wish i got a slightly thicker side wall. i think once i get the chrome lugs on there i will be happy. i am still not used to the rims. doesn't seem like my cl. now i got everyone tryin to race me and people yellin nice car. a part of me doesn't want to sell it.

peace

The wheels are looking real nice, but I think it would definately look better with the chrome lugs. I got pretty much the identical car as yours, Black 97 2.2 lowered. I'm thinking about getting some tints and maybe debadging it too, it looks nice.

Looks nice, but i can't believe u removed the sticker, alot of people acutally try to buy them. But as long as u like it... Looks very clean.

Those center cap looks weak compared to the other caps they have.

Thanks guys.

Im not missing any centercaps. Those are the correct center caps for that wheel. i was talking about the chrome valve stem caps that say rays on them. i have them just dont have them on. ill get some cheap chrome ones instead.

i had to remove the stickers. it looked hideous. i really didnt want to but i had to.

the car handles much better now.

it was worth the wait for the rims. i only wish i had a little more tire around the rim. i think tire/rim combo is a little too sporty on my cl. a thicker tire would ahve toned it done a little.

theres no way i can come to the LI meet. ill be at college.

This pic would look better if there would have been a light in the background. That way you would at least be able to see the lines of the car! You cant even tell it has a spoiler!




Either way looks nice! Although 18's would make it look hot!!!

Those look damn good VXCL. Does your car seem a little quicker on the new shoes vs. the stocks?

when i used the flash the pics came out darker, but clear. it wasnt anywhere near that dark out. when i used no flash they were blurry but brighter. its my fav pic though. once i get the chrome lugs on ill take some more pics. im not feelin the black ones. worst part is they cost $135!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mark the car is actually alittle slower becuase even though the rims weigh less then stock the wheel/tire combo weighs more them my oem/winter combo.

i cant sell the other rims becuase they are my winter setup.
