Mr_Efficiency Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Was curious if anyone knew the offset of the TGP Xlaces and the offset of the Firebird Xlaces? I saw a early 80's firebird today with those rims and they looked just like the TGP ones and i know they have the same bolt pattern, also i bet being firebird rims they would be 8" wide like the TGP rims are instead of 7" like the regular grand prix Xlaces. These are also easier to find than TGP rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManicMechanic Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 If you think they have the same bolt pattern, it will be interesting to watch you bolt them on...Please take a video.. Also, the GP X-laces are 8"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 the bolt patterns are completely different and all GP X-laces are 8" wide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuntzie Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 do you mean the trans am GTA model... they are the same size rims ... 16x8s but the rims are different as they have a largerlip (there lugnutes arent inside of the x-lace parts, they sit flush with them.. the offset is still +24mm on the rims thoiugh but unfortunatly they are 5x120 bolt pattern and wont work for us.

Mr_Efficiency Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Really, I though the F bodies used the same 5x115 bolt patern as we do. Theres guys on the Grand am forums swaping F body brakes onto there cars and they have 5x115 bolt pattern and are using f body calipers, brackets and rotors. but there I've also seen them use impala rotors.... maybe cause the f body ones didnt work cause of the bolt pattern diffrence... the world makes sence again, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krenzy Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 ...I think someone wants to create a Grand Illusion/Prototype TGP, correct? The rims on those cars are identical to Firebird crosslaces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
