lolumz34 Posted June 21, 2003 Report Posted June 21, 2003 Last I heard... The w's needed 5 115 bolt pattern these are 5-100/ 5-114.3 LUG PATTERN Quote
hazmatic Posted June 21, 2003 Report Posted June 21, 2003 i was told the 114.3 lug pattern would work with the 115 when i look at rims i hadly ever see ne that r 115 Quote
OldsmoBeast Posted June 21, 2003 Report Posted June 21, 2003 don't our cars need special wheels so that they don't hit the calipers? Quote
Pabz Posted June 22, 2003 Report Posted June 22, 2003 Those will prolly hit your calpiers!!! no good, i was gonna get (and now happy that i didn't) konig flatlines, they hit the front calipers. and those rims look like theyd touch. Quote
92turboLE Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 Just a thaught... i just got rims not too long ago, and i have a 92 grand prix and the lug pattern was 5-108... im not sure what the offest is on my wheels. I do know however that the wheels i was initially gonna get were "made specificly for the GM w-bodys" but did not clear the caliper bracket. granted with a little gringing i could have taken down the bracket just enough... but not worth having a bracket break and suddenly having no breaks just so i could fit some wheels on.... honestly... i wouldnt buy anything off the net... take it to a shop, if you see something you like??? see if they can size it on the car to give you an idea... i waited around and found some used wheels and tires for mine and paid a little over 400 for tires and rims. rims had 80% and are michilin Pilot aports and the rims are like-new 17 inch enkei... not bad for under 500 - Justin Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 Probably a good 80% of all wheels the right bolt pattern (or 5x114.3) and the right offset won't work due to the front caliper bracket. It shouldn't hurt to grind it down a few millimeters. That's what I did to fit some aftermarket 16x7 wheels on the '88 and it held up fine for many years. On some wheels, even a few mm won't cut it. I took a gamble on the new wheels I bought online for my '89 Cutty (shop selling them had no clue if they'd fit or not), and I lost this bet. I need like 1/2" to clear the caliper bracket. If I upgrade to 95+ Monte bigger front brakes (which pushes the bracket further forward by 3/8"), then I'll only need to shave 1-2mm to make my wheels fit, so the fact that I want these wheels on my car is an incentive to upgrade to bigger brakes.

92turboLE Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 bonus... i am planning on doing the brake upgrade as well... lemme know how yours turns out... - Justin Quote
