Big Rims and Big Engines

I am Building up my grand prix for a very special event in my town and a lot of people down south and in the midwest like to go with big rims big engines and a lot of car monitors.Now I am the kind of person who is going to do all of that and more but i would like to get opinions on if people think it is worth it to have 22"rims on a car with more than 400hp under the hood and more car monitors in spots that dont even matter other than to show off your ride.And also lot of fiberglass in a (18)year old car

I personally think 22's look really tacky on cars except for the new 300. I would stick with 20's.

If you want to build a car for one, single show...go for it. No one is stopping you.

I wouldn't go over 20" wheels, unless you plan on doing a LOT of work to make 22's fit. 400hp really isn't that much, and would cause no problems with the wheels.

Re: Big Rims and Big Engines

except that with 400hp, you'll probably go really fast a lot and hit pot holes and ruin your rims.

oh, and by the way, if you have enough money to pimp out a car that much, get a different car than an 86 grand prix.
