I disagree, if you're going old school, then those are not the right looking rims IMO. Sorry.

No, hea meant that he was posting the pictures the "old school way" because he couldnt image source them here for some reason even though it seems to be working now.

the rims in the pic are ssr competion rims i think

and since i have a GSL-SE..... yes they make the right pattern
the only thin im worrying about is the width and offset.....

but thes exact whells are alil too$$$$ for my blood roughly 1500 - 1700 depending on what tires id get...

ive found some other companies making pretty close knock offs/ similar style for around 1000 to 1200

any who 17s is what im goin for...but in the end i may not be able to afford it..... but im sure acuple visits to blood and plasma donation places woudl help haha........ thx

yup, those are SSR Competition wheels, (or SSR type-C depending on the source)

VERY light weight wheels, that are generally used for track only because of some slight breakage tendancies.

I looked hard for those to put on my car, but tey didn't make 16's that woudl fit on the gsl-se..

that and they're ~$250-300 a wheel.

I think you can find that front lip in the Victoria British Catalog. go to http://www.victoriabritish.com/ and order a free catalog.

I don't have a scanner otherwise i'd scan in the pic. I think it's about $100.00. I like it too... but much to poor to afford such a luxury. I would keep it the unpainted black or paint it a flat black...

Ok, hope you find it!
