I want to put some chrome 19" vette rims like these on my 2004 GP I plan on buying the lug adapters but I am unsure if the width would fit.. any ideas? also does brembo or wilwood make calipers that will fit the car?

considering they're 18x8.5 (or 18x10) and 19x10 (or 19x12) (OR 20x12!) with really high offsets....hell no.
 
you all didn't read. he said he would use adapters.

but in the end that'd only compound the problem of them not fitting.
 


To the OP some regal dude had gunmetal C5 Z06 wheels on a black regal gs for years let me see if I can dig up some pics.

Compond the problem how Ohhh MrWheelGod????

seems to me this has already been done let me chase down some pics and yes of course the Z06 wheels on the Regal used adapters.....
 
you know he posted ZR1 wheels, right? you're talking about dean's regal that had some skinny vette wheels on it.

once again, chasing me around trying to prove me wrong when you can't. learn to read.
 
the 18x8.5 wheels have a +56mm offset.

with a bolt on adapter of a MINIMUM of 15mm (which would require to shave the stock studs down) it would give you a wheel with 18x8.5 +41mm. will that fit with a normal tire? you betcha.

even with a bolt on adapter of 25mm (might not have to shave stock studs down) it would give you a 18x8.5 +31mm which is starting to push it for a 'normal' fitment.


if that was the case i'd say go for it, but the MINIMUM size of a 19" ZR1 wheel is 19x10, which will absolutely not fit with an adapter no matter what you want to do. MOVE ALONG.
 


As far as the lug pattern problem, perhaps it would be a better route to use an aftermarket hub with the correct lug pattern, or slots for multiple lug patterns, if such a thing is available on our platform.
 
the real way to go about this is to use the STYLE of the ZR1 wheel and find an aftermarket version of it in the correct size and bolt pattern for the car.

however, that wasn't brought up anywhere in here.
