97loudcut Posted April 30, 2006 Report Posted April 30, 2006 are wheels that came off a 2000 gtp going to fit my 1997 Cutlass? the wheels were on this Quote
Bossman429 Posted April 30, 2006 Report Posted April 30, 2006 Going from gen 2 wheels onto a gen 1 car requires spacers for proper fit. Are you getting the factory wheels, or those in the pics? I love the ones pictured! Quote
Euro Posted April 30, 2006 Report Posted April 30, 2006 yeah you'll need spacers to clear the calipers...and those wheels will look good on your cutty Quote
97loudcut Posted April 30, 2006 Author Report Posted April 30, 2006 thanks...how much can i expect to pay for spacers? Quote
Psych0matt Posted April 30, 2006 Report Posted April 30, 2006 i think you can get pairs for under 20$ (not sure, but i think) Quote
97loudcut Posted April 30, 2006 Author Report Posted April 30, 2006 can anyone else vouche for this? Quote
ToroToro Posted April 30, 2006 Report Posted April 30, 2006 Yeah... I paid 20 bucks a pair to try to get my Aurora rims to fit on my CS. Still didn't clear with 7/16 spacers though. You should be able to get them to fit, but make sure you pound some longer studs in there if you gotta use a big spacer. I dont know if hub centric rings would work with a spacer but that would be a good idea too, or your rims will be wobbling like all hell. Quote
Euro Posted May 1, 2006 Report Posted May 1, 2006 yeah like autozone or some parts stores have them Quote
jeremy Posted May 1, 2006 Report Posted May 1, 2006 make sure you get longer studs if you get spacers Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted May 1, 2006 Report Posted May 1, 2006 If those are aftermarket (which they look to be), they may fit without spacers. Just have to try 'em. Quote
97loudcut Posted May 2, 2006 Author Report Posted May 2, 2006 my bad they came off a 1997 GTP...so Im good right? Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted May 2, 2006 Report Posted May 2, 2006 If they're factory wheels from a 97+ Grand Prix, you're gonna need some beefy spacers and lug studs to clear the calipers. Quote
97loudcut Posted May 2, 2006 Author Report Posted May 2, 2006 no there not factory wheels. There 17 inch Konig Villians. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted May 2, 2006 Report Posted May 2, 2006 In that case, they might fit with no problem. See if you can try before you buy. Quote
97loudcut Posted May 2, 2006 Author Report Posted May 2, 2006 well im buying them off of black5spdz for $400 with tires. He says they will fit no problem. the website doesnt list a offset but it does say "they are exceptionally light at 21 lbs. and can clear coilovers and 13" brake kits" Quote
jeremy Posted May 3, 2006 Report Posted May 3, 2006 FWIW: 21# isn't "exceptionally light" for a 17" rim....regardless of the weight, they do look good though Quote
