87 or 88 was the start of the FWD Grand Prix, so you'll need to get something newer than that, cause the other rims are RWD and I believe have the wrong offset/bolt pattern.

87+ GP, bonneville, lesabre, park ave, 88, 98, lumina?, maybe deville, seville, eldorado. should work for you.

1988 was the first year for the FWD GP. I owned one. But it had 15" wheels, I don't think you'd want to put them on a Bonneville.

It is with great sadness that the White 90 SSE that has shared 15 years of my life has now gone to a better place. I took my last drive in her this morning to deliver her to Mike G'* new resting place. I'm hoping that you can all share in a moment of silence as I "Pay My Last Repects" I will miss her so dearly. For those of you that have driven the same car for 15 years may understand.


May my bonne rest in peace.

I salute you, dear white 90 SSE. You had the pleasure of a caring owner in Frank, and in return you gave him and his family many years and kilometres of service. It is an honour and distinction that will not be forgotten.

Thanks for the kind words Jerry. And I'm sure the Bonne appreciates it.

Jim, in the over 30 years of driving, I'd have to say that I probably have less than a dozen pictures of the cars that I have owned. I took only 1 picture of the 90 SSE, and have never taken a picture of the 95 SSEi. I have several cameras but rarely use any of them. Sad......I know, but I do believe that repinS has a few. I may have a picture that I received when I inquired about the car prior to purchasing it, but it'* not flattering.
