Finally got around to painting and mounting the G8 GT 19" wheels and I really like how the came out to compared to stock. My good friend Chris from E&S dips plastidipped it back with silver metal flake and a few coats of glossifier.

Parked on Pontiac Street and instagrammed of course.

And stock

Nice the wheels came out awesome. I'm thinking of dipping my wheels Anthracite with a few coats of metalizer and glossifier.

I love 'em! they just fit the size of the car so much better.

Nice, I was thinking about anthracite myself but I have a few black accents already on there so this was easy. I did 1 coat of the flake and 4 coats of the gloss. I will need to take better pictures but I might hit it with another coat of the flake (the can broke)

Thanks! Yeah the overall diameter with the 245/35 /19 series tires is only like a half inch larger but I might move up to something like 265/35 for the back.

I think the sidewall decrease is perfect, probably rides pretty harsh now without the thicker tyres :P

It's not bad at all actually... I might change my tune after I install the BC Coilovers though.

More flake would definitely bring it out.
