  • My next set of wheels...

    Someday I would like to put a set of these on my Firebird. Does anyone know if it is possible since Tirerack won't tell me?

      A few screws and they can look different every day! I would probably have the red ones painted to match the red on my car.





      Yeah I really like them but I'm not sure if they will fit or not. Can anyone tell me?

      Sizes available

      18x8 40mm offset
      19x8.5 45mm offset
      19x9.5 45mm offset

      Also will I require spacers or some type of adapter?

      Some people on LS1GTO were saying they would work on a GTO if that helps?

      Anyone want to try a photochop?

        I saw these at tirerack when i got new tires. I think it's a pretty good idea. If you do get them take some pictures and let me know how they turn out

            Wrong bolt pattern. They are 5 x 120mm not 5 x 4.75" that the F bodies need. I was going to get a set of these for the G8 but they weren't available yet when I was looking and I found a better deal on the wheels I ended up getting.

              So there is no way I can get these to work? Even with spacers and such?

                  They're the right offset, but wrong bolt pattern. You'd have to have the bolt holes machined out to fit the right bolt pattern. Some people run the 120mm bolt pattern on F bodies but it puts a lot of stress on the studs and the wheels may not seat right. Some people have had no issues while others have had broken studs and worse case the whole wheel coming off.
