Made in the 5x120mm bolt pattern 18x9 Offset +32mm. Would these fit.

To clarify: use the Discount Tires guide: 18x9's up front would need at least +48mm offset. In the rear, +48 to +65 offset, though you can go as low as 40mm in the rears with fender rolling. And you can't roll the fronts.

Same. Here's the chart I trust:

Very few 17x9's available in the correct offset, but if you find any that fit, let me know. :)

And Nikivee - what we need are some 15x9-10's with some 275/50 MT Drag Radials. :cool: Too bad no one makes 'em. :(

Please do, GTO4Ever! The wheels I've thought all along would be "just right" are the new forged Cragar S/S. Then maybe I'd even be willing to roll my wheelwells to fit 275s in back!

Any plans to make the original SS wheel to fit the required offset for the 2004 GTO’s?

17X9 at least +48 front and +48-+65 rear

Thank you,

Michael
