MonteCarloChick Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 How can you even compare the two? It's apples and oranges Quote
no1kicker Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Old picture, I don't own the car anymore. Quote
ManicMechanic Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 I'm reasonably sure that x-laces weren't available in 1992. Quote
Brian P Posted January 23, 2009 Report Posted January 23, 2009 correcto, they used the sigepcutlass 15" wheels in '92+ Quote
Scottster Posted January 23, 2009 Report Posted January 23, 2009 Old picture, I don't own the car anymore. mmmmMMMM...nice machine. Quote
swift13 Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 seen a 97 monte or so with the 02 monte 5 star alloys i took a pic on the phone maybe ill post later Quote
ManicMechanic Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Not sure what these are from... Cadillac Allante, maybe? Quote
oldscsc Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Saw a second gen Grand Prix on a used car lot today with Bonneville 5-spokes. Quote
w-bodys_are_the_best Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Not sure what these are from... Cadillac Allante, maybe? Those look like they could be the PA Ultra wheels, the 16 inchers look like that, my PA has the 15 inchers. Quote
ManicMechanic Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Gonna have to go with Allante. Quote
ss427 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Gonna have to go with Allante. Allante wheels were painted completely gray. Those are 90-91 ETC STS wheels, with a machined finish and black highlights in the spokes. Same wheel though! Quote
MonteCarloChick Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Oddly enough I saw that Impala I was talking about again! Way over by school this time Quote
ns87 Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Posted January 28, 2009 What a great topic I started Quote

Breakdown Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 new members car :drool: I think that these are new-style x-laces (they actually belong on this car). Quote
Breakdown Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 I'm reasonably sure that x-laces weren't available in 1992. These are the exact rims that my poor AJAM is equiped with now. I sold the car with sawblades and now it has these!!! They're horrible! Compared to sawblades at least on a white car. I'll check, I have the 1992 thingy at home, I thought that they were available in '92. Quote
Euro Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 I think that these are new-style x-laces (they actually belong on this car). No, the Gen 2 crosslaces don't stick out at all, and the inner portion of the rim(the laced part) sort of curves outward a tad. Quote

No, the Gen 2 crosslaces don't stick out at all, and the inner portion of the rim(the laced part) sort of curves outward a tad. Ooops. I just went into the thread to check for myself. I thought when I originally looked at the pics that he pulled an Anthony - guess not. I already knew about the curves on the 2nd Gen's, that's my tell-tale sign, either way. Quote
ManicMechanic Posted January 31, 2009 Report Posted January 31, 2009 Not only does it have GP wheels, it has TWO DIFFERENT GP wheels... Quote
