The rims are a definite improvement over stock.

TOO MUCH STICKERS!!! One is plenty!
When you bought your car, did it seem like the LTs and LSs are coming with the low profile spoiler now instead of no spoiler or the gimpy shorty spoiler?

The "rims" are stock.

And what are you talkin about spoiler, thats the low pro thats offered on the LS's and LT's.

But it looks good, you just need to LOWER it

Actually, those rims ARE stock. I haven't made any changes to her. Yes, all the LT's and LS's had the low spoiler like mine. None of them (out of ALL the 'balts they had) had the larger spoiler...I believe there was one that didn't have one at all. But I do like the low spoiler that I have...And it comes in handy for me anyways because I'm short and the one I have sometimes gets in my way as it is.

Secondly I have ONE magnet on my car (the ribbon) and the red sticker you see is from the dealer...and I haven't had the time, nor the patience to get it off yet. I'm afraid of scratching the black.

Thanks. How much does it cost to lower it and what are the advantages/disadvantages of doing so?

nice balt, like you were saying, no need to hurry to get the stickers off or anything, might as well just enjoy its stockness now, once you start to mod you will notice more of the cars weaker points

My springs were 130 shipped from Gravana. I have the Tenzo R springs. A lot of members hate them yet dont give them a chance. I love them.

They lowered my car 2" in fron and 2.5" in the rear, it looks great. Advantages are less body roll and a little bit stiffer suspension. Disadvantages....none so far.

Nice ride! What % tint did you get?

And yes, I agree with halfj99, I hope that was a lame attempt at a joke by intense_ss.

Very nice My first balt was a 05 base, hubcaps and all, black. Hope you're ready for the upkeep of that color.

good luck with it

Ehhhh. I can't find a pic of one that has it. There is this gimpy little spoiler that I THOUGHT was the standard spoiler for the LS and LTs...Anyone else seen this?
anyways it seems like GM has quit using it.
I think Hackabuse still has one on his ride.

Yeah, the upkeep is something I've gotten used to. Something much different...frequent washes and vacuuming of the interior (black also).


And everything on my car is stock, tint and all...I don't know what the % is, but I do plan on going a little darker if I can get the funds...

Thanks, and I'll probably be taking some interior shots today so I'll try and post them tonight. No, you didn't miss the question cause it wasn't answered yet. I bought it brand spanking new.

Nice. I had to do that too.
Anyways. Your car looks great btw. I'm glad GM decided to axe those crappy black rims with covers. I recommend Eagle Products Nanowax (NOT the spray bottle) or Zaino. Both products are freaking awesome. And so far, Black Magic Tire shine has worked best for me as far as wheels go.
