When I got my GSX I took off the 17" GSX wheels and switched them with the chrome GST wheels that I had on my RS that I was selling. I read a lot of posts about the GSX wheels bending and cracking and that there was even a lawsuit against Mitsubishi about them. I also removed the GSX sticker so with the GST rims its harder for people to tell that its AWD

The GSX rims are nice looking, 17", and I'm almost positive a little lighter than the chrome GST rims.
However, they are pretty weak and bend easily.
