If I was to put a set of aftermarket wheels on my GN- It would be Centerline Convo-Pro's! I love those wheels and have wanted a set since they came out.

Great pics!!!

Thanks gents. This is my Dad's first love, even over the Viper. I think he's nuts, cause when I drive his Dodge, all of a sudden I feel like I have a 10" pecker
