Rims

What do you think about these rims for my GXL??? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-WH...QQcmdZViewItem

Also, while I have your attention. I gave my car a tune up today and after, my car kept hitting fuel everytime I went over 1700rpm. The problem didnt correct itself until I reset the computer. My OMP was leaking so I ordered another one, I was wondering if that could have been the culprit. Thanks.

In an 88 the OMP is still going 2 be mechanical (rod controlled). If you had an S5 the omp not working would put you in limp mode.

I think he ment fuel cut.

Yes, I did mean fuel cut. But, what else could put my car in limp mode? Thankx for the help.

Just remember they're that cheap for a reason... they're ADRs. I think they look fine, but they're a cheap/not so good quality wheel. My .02.

Lol... maybe thats just because 17s arent that much bigger from 16 and 15, in my honest its 18s that look way bigger... But they are too big for me.
