Wheels are posted for sale on G8Board with these specs
Model: SC19GTO/8543a
Size: 19x8.5J
Offset: +43
Pattern: 5x120
These wheels were custom made for a few GTO's. They are a light weight polished aluminum. These are very light. I was suprised when I picked it up. There is no retail price on these as they were custom. They cost a couple thousand to be made though, from what I was told.
I like the looks of them but they don't come with center caps, however, seller says the stock centers should fit from what he was told.
Any body?

The fitment looks spot on, however I highly doubt the stock center caps will fit.
They do look a lot like Voxx tho

FYI... you might also want to mention to the guy selling these on the G8 board that GTOs have 12mm lugs while G8s are 14mm, so there's an outside chance the lug holes might be a hair too small for G8s.

Good call. I did mention the difference in hub bore size to him though. Didn't even think about the stud difference even though my dad has a GXP.
Anyways, he said he was going to post more information on them later today so hopefully I will get this figured out. I'm kind of wondering if these might have issues on the front being 8.5" as I haven't done much researching into the whole offset equation on the GTO.

Forgestars?
Edit: Never mind, definitely not forgestars.

When you guys figure it out, let me know. I bought them with the car. I like them a lot and want the brand in case I need to replace one.

I googled voxx misano wheel and that picture is what came up numerous times. Case closed?
Edit: I am stumped again. Voxxs' site says the only come in 18s and 20s. Mine are 19s and look exactly like the ones in the box. Shit.

8.5" w/ET43 should be just fine as long as you stick with a 245 tire.

The way the spokes curve and the stock center cap fitment remind me of CCWs, but they don't have anything with 14 spokes.
The closest thing is the SP16 http://www.zip-corvette.com/_Images%5CBlobs%5CH-724B.JPG

The Voxx are a 16 spoke wheel as well so that rules them out. I was thinking they had a look similar to the SP16 as well, but like Purple said the spokes rule that out as well. Still waiting on a answer back from the guy.
99blkgt, do you have any more pictures of those wheels on your car from the side? Now that I see them on the car, they look pretty good on there.

Hey guys, Rawyzf from the G8Board & GRRRR8 Forums :). First post here.
I am trying to sell these for someone I know. Here are all the details from the thread I posted on the other forum.
I found the details I was looking for, these are some sweet wheels!
FS: 19x8.5 Champion Motorsport Forged Aluminum Wheels & 245/35/19 Michelin Pilot Sports
Wheels are brand new in boxes, and tires are new with stickers on them still.
Wheel Details: (Pics Below)
Brand: Champion Motorsport
Model: RG32
Weight: 18.5lbs
Size: 19x8.5J
Offset: +43
Pattern: 5x120
Center Cap Gap: 63/64mm (pretty much the same as the stock G8 as the stock cap fits)
These wheels were custom made for a few GTO's by Champion Motorsport (http://www.championmotorsport.com/wheels.html) They are a light weight forged polished aluminum. These are very light. I was suprised when I picked it up. There is no retail price on these as they were custom. They cost a couple thousand to be made though, from what I was told. Price I have found on a few web sites have them listed from $900-$1200 for 18-19" wheels, each. These are very popular with Porsche & Racing. (http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/c...5778_5779. html)
I believe you will need a centering ring if putting these on the G8, as these were made for the GTO.
Tire Details:
Michelin Pilot Sport
245/35/ZR19
Retail $237 each on Tire Rack.
Looking for $2500/bo.

In August from a local dealer. Car was from Minnesota and there is a little bit of clear coat peeling on two of the rims.
Now that i see how rare these are, I will be getting them repaired rather than replaced. Also glad to know they are oh so very light :turbonaug

Ok, figure that was probably a MN car. The guy who I know who has these got them from the dealership. They ordered I think 10 sets of them for a few GTO's they sold.
Yeah, these are rare, and super light weight. Read up on thier site, sounds like they are very durable too.
The guy has 2 sets left, I'm thinking about getting a set for my G8, but not really sure I want the polished look.

I don't know but I fucking approve. Those rims look phenomenal on black :drool:

Man I could really use just one of those as a back-up. OP I sent you a message asking about possibly getting one since you said the guy has 8. Let me know.
These are def not MC-2s. Of the MC-2s Pontiac offered there was one rim that was decent looking and that was a five spoke.

They look good on the car. Are you looking for what they are to be able to purchase wider ones for the rear?
