Now guys. Lets not kill the ricers here. Its the want-to-be ricers we have to knock on. I had a 94' Mazda MX-3 and I loved that car. 1.8 V6 with 350HP to the wheels, and still 30mpg. I was not complaining at all. And it looked pretty too. Didnt really sound too much like a ricer though. More or less a drift car. I loved it. But I would never trade my jeep for one. But planing on buying another one.

Very true, i love my jeep and im sure im going to have it for a long time. but my last car got about 28 MPG's could still hold 5 people comfortably and i'd say was pretty unique. You don't see many "ricer" style newer grand ams. I had a nice set of Enkei 17" wheels, cold air intake, pacesetter cat-back system, and blue xenon bulbs and foglights (which looked pretty good) only 70k miles and only $4,200 into at the end, and selling it for $5,600 not a bad deal, but i could have got a lot more if i held on to it until gas got pricey.

My wife has a Grand Am and she loves it!! She will not get rid of it for the life of her. And she rubs in the mpg all the time. But as I told her before and always will. "Baby, my jeep will go over you gas saver." lol. She hates that.

Yeah they are 17" i got the set brand new off ebay for $190 so i couldn't pass up a nice set of Enkeis for that price! then i got a go price of some general low profile tires for it with a really nice tread that cornered and held up amazing. The combo was about an inch smaller then stock.

They look smaller. My wife has 15's and they look bigger than that. But hers are stock. She wants rims and she wants 16's. but I said 17's would look better.
