Okay, Found a potential set of wheels. Brand new too...my question is, has anyone used 5x115 wheels on an 8G?
I know with the Grand Am crowd, 5x114.3 wheels do fit, just need hubcentric rings.

America's/Discount Tire sells those wheels online for $73 each, and in the correct bolt pattern. The money you will spend on spacers to change the cars bolt pattern you may as well spend online going with a 17" or 18" set.
You don't really wanna mess with the bolt pattern unless it's really worth it.
See, that's just the thing...Quote:

I was wondering if it was the same reversed. (use of just hub rings.)
well try putting ur stock pontiac rims on teh G and see what happens
YUCK! They are only 16x7!!! :(
Issue with that...my stock chrome 16"s are long gone. I have steelies for the winter, but they don't fit the same as alloys. :/Quote:

Damn. Good deal on those wheels too.
:/ ewwies
Hey, they aren't that bad. Not everyone is a brand whore like you. LOLQuote:

16"s are a bit small. Like I said, the price caught my attention. Figured I'd see if they'd work.
To be honest I don't really like those wheels specially they are not the right bolt pattern for our cars but if you like them and you think they will fit with some hubcentric its up to you that's your car and you money. I rather spend that money on some stock 3G wheels, they look better, quality, and they will fit with no problem. just my .02
5x114.3 can be installed on 5x115 vehicles and vice versa. Just as 5x120 can be used on 5x120.75 vehicles and vice versa. It isn't recommended, but it is possible. You don't have to worry about hub centric rings to fit them to the car for any reason but the correcting the standard oversized hubbore on aftermarket wheels.
That said...I've seen hundreds of cars get either 5x115 wheels (on 5x114.3 cars) or vice versa over the years without any issues whatsoever.
Trust me the Seven X in silver and in 17 would look a hell of alot better on the G.Quote:

Same Color, These are 16 though. And Tein Stech Drop
Thank you! This pretty much hit the nail on the head as far as what I was looking for. I have very thin hub rings on my Pontiac with the ROHs because I had a vibration at first, but after the hub rings, I've never had an issue since, and I've clocked over 50,000 miles on these wheels.Quote:
