i have a question for anybody that can help i have a 02 GTP and am looking for bigger rims well i cam across a set of factory rims off a 1998 Corvette for a good deal and i was wondering if anyone knows would they be a direct fit for my 2002 GTP or would i have to do sumthing thank you
 




I was doing some diggin and the bolt pattern for those Corvette wheels are 5x4.75 which is not the same as ours. Also it looks like the stock wheels have 17x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear. Not sure how good that would look. Plus a 9.5 rear might possibly have rubbing issues depending on the backspacing, which I could not find.

Different bolt pattern as well. Vettes use a 5x120.65mm offset while GP's use a 5x115mm. Plus the offset is made for RWD rahter than for FWD. You can get away with a 9" on a GP. I have seen a few guys run 18x9 mustang wheels. It might rub but a little fender rolling would help that.
 


the widest youre going to want for wheels is 9". even those you have a high probability of rubbing unless you roll your fenders.
 


im sure you could...but why? you could probably find a wheel in the right bolt pattern that looks pretty much like them.
