99 grand prix gt 3.8L

hey everyone Ive had this car a while and im wondering what kinda intake is best for this car? Some friends have told me SLP or K&N idk what to pick!! lol let me know im looking for good gas mileage and performance Ive been looking around... another ? I'm getting some rims on my car also soon and im wondering if i get 18in rims by 7.5 i think would i be able to by both tire and rim for a good price Ive been on tirerack.com and some other sites... my friend told me I'd have to change the odometer reading also but how would i go about doing it thanks looking to hear from someone!!

it all depends on how much you wanna spend. you can make a homemade CAI for around $50.00

i would suggest SLP though. but they are up around $300.00 or so...

check out the following websites, they are excellent for grand prix parts

ZZperformance (https://www.zzperformance.com/)

SLP Performance (http://www.lmperformance.com/default.asp?ref=SLPGOOGLE&gclid=CJuix8SVsZECFQiaPAodEQrHgA)

3800 performance (http://3800performance.com/)

well yea i think i am going to save up for that SLP intake u seem like u know alot man what kinda gp u got??

that GTX is a sweet car man i was lookin at an impala s there is a blue one near my house for sale it looks sick im stickin with my GT my little baby lol hahaha i love it though its white though so clean it when its nice out im on this site its called i think pfyc.com its a good site maybe u have heard of it thats where my freinds get there stuff from decent prices so have u heard about that pontiac G8?? that looks nasty...

cant say i've every ordered anything from PFYC. i'm a firm believer in ZZperformance. they've treated me very well. I've spent SOOO much money with them

3800Performance is alright, but seems like they have been going downhill for the past while

I agree Bob. It's one thing to use common things like "thru for through" to shorten your post, but something different altogether when you get a headache trying to decipher what the person is trying to convey.

I have a white one do u think black rims would look good on the car? would i need to put tints on it to?

Check out www.wbodystore.com. I've dealt with them and they were helpful when I needed a replacement part for one they sent me that went bad. And, I think they have the nicest fenderwell intake for the car I've seen, not too mention being cheaper than any SLP intake.

now i have a question.. yes it would be cheaper now it says you have to cut out the fender or something on the wide body.. how would u go alone doing that would i be able to do it by my self?? It does look neat and how long do u think it would take for insallation?

they look badass on my black car. go to discounttire.com and click on showcase. you can look at your car with the rims on it. they dont have the exact rims but if u look at the MB wheels and click on the drifter wheel they look badass as well.

yea man ive seen there wheels before they look sick I was lookin at these other rims asa rims for a little more price but idk what kinda tires would i need if they are 18inch??/

I use P245/45-R18 sized tires (GoodYear Eagle RSA) which will have minimal effect on speedometer error. Way less than 1 mph. About .12 mph error. That is the maximum size without inner fender rubbing and other problems. Make sure you get aftermarket wheels with the proper wheel offset which can range around 35mm to 45mm positive offset. Typical for 18" is around 40-42mm offset. Bolt pattern is 115mm X 5 or you can use 114.3mm X 5 which is the Ford Mustang bolt pattern as an alternative.

here is what I would like on my car .. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&initialPartNumber=JH8861BML&wheelMake=ASA&wheelModel=JH8&wheelFinish=Black+w%2FMach+Lip&showRear=no&autoMake=Pontiac&autoModel=Grand+Prix+GT+Sedan&autoYear=1999&autoModClar=&filterSize=All&filterFinish=All&filterSpecial=false&filterBrand=All&filterNew=All&sort=Brand
if i got these style rims which do fit my car how would i decipher on what tires to get with it so it wouldn't cause a problem with the odometer reading and wouldn't touch the fender?? My friend said also that I could get low profile tires also but i don't know..
