Default put GTP 16x8 crosslace wheels on my SSE *PICS - 56k warning*

well the tires on my original SSE rims are crap, and i don't really like them anyway, so i put the 16x8 Grand Prix GTP crosslace wheels that were on my Cutlass onto my SSE. they stick out a bit more than the Bonneville 16x7 crosslace wheels, but they are still flush with the body of the car and don't stick out at all (btw, they have a 25mm offset, i'm not sure what the Bonneville crosslace wheels have for offset). i'd rather have 16x7 Bonneville crosslace wheels, but these will have to do until i can find some and buy new tires. the 16x8 crosslace wheels definately gave it a more beefy look IMHO. tell me whatcha think:

I like the look of the fatter wheels on the Bonne, thoes tires look weird to me, I think that a different tire would make the car looks even better.
