    too late

    referencing to B19 I went out and picked up a set...

    TSX = 64.1mm and our G8's = 67.1mm so not too big of a difference...

    I'll probably get a shop to enlarge the centerbore by 3mm = .1181" so not too big of deal, I hope...

    A 3mm overbore shouldn't alter the structural integrity of that wheel much of any significant amount.

    thanks for the confidence...logically that's what i'm thinking...i'll post some pictures once i'm done....

    I put them on with a 1/8" gap today just to test...lowered the car back down and indeed they look nice...

    I guess anything would look nice compared to the stock steelies ;)
