    Re: Hub Caps vs. Rims?

    For a factory stock item, the G6's hubcaps don't look too bad to me. Some aftermarket hubcap do look quite good.
    Sure hubcaps spell 'cheap' and rims are definitely better, but I wouldn't feel too embarass about our hubcaps.

          Before I got my wheels I spraypainted the stock hubcaps. It didnt look half bad.

            What did you spary it with?

            I hear all of your comments about the Rims, but honestly I can't shell out $800 for 4 new rims. A little bit too much for my pocket. Especially since I want to get a paint job, body kit, tint, and spoiler (my car is metallic grey, base V6 model).

              Gunmetal spray can wheel coating, you can pick whatever color you like obviously. and to post pictures there is a "img" icon at the top of when you're writing your post - click that but in between the ] and [ put the url of the picture you want to post. I'm sure there is an FAQ around somewhere about it

                That wouldn't look too bad either if they were rims instead of hubcaps.

                  I'm thinking of removing the hubcaps and painting the lugnuts black on my 07... I'll post pics later on if I do. If I don't like it, I can always put the caps back on, and the plastic fake lugnuts will hide the painted ones! Should have close to the same effect of painting the hubcap black. It'll just be missing the Pontiac logo.

                        My G6 came stock with the 16" ugly ass wheels. I ponder going for 17" because I was broke but some one here told me to go for the 18". It took about a year to save up and find the right deal for the wheels I wanted, I'm glad I did. Wheels don't just add to the look of the car, they also improve the ride quality, that is if you get good tires.

                        As for hub caps, I drove my first car, a 98 Accord, with hub caps till some lady total it.

                        As you can see I went with the wheels over fixing that dam dent but here in a few days I should have the cash to get it fixed that is if I don't just decide to get the GT-R first
