Car is looking great with the new wheel/tyre combo.
Still not sure whether I like your (USA) GTO front, think our GTO/GTS front looks better but that is nitpicking on an otherwise great car.
Those brakes looke awesome and I belive there are a few over here using the same kit, good work.
I have 18" also with same offset, same size tyres but in 8"/9" combo.
Finding the ride comfort versus my old 19" W/T combo to be much better and the extra rear rubber helps get power down better.

Aye, thanks guys! I like the monaro front better, but the GTO ones doesnt look so bad once you get the SAP nostrils in like I have, the OTR really helps out alot instead of that stone side cone setup.

I think 18's are the perfect size for this car as they are not too small and not too big and tire size is very versatile & cost effective. And yeah, there are a few in AU running this kit, I get nothing but compliments.

The stock brakes just weren't doing it, really makes the car stand out and look updated methinks.

The new pics look good although could do with a little lowering in the rear maybe.
Rotten luck about the alternator, hope it's all good now.

Yeah thanks, the drag bag still had some rpessure in them so thats why the rear is raised up.

It was actually the positive connector on the alternator; wire tore off and it was just hanging on there. Contemplating new wiring.

Awesome car man. I do agree with the other comment about it needing more low, but as mentioned the tyres do stick out a bit. I'm liking the front bumper on ours more than yours IMO, still a beautiful car.
