    Okay, so I'm kinda confused. There's a guy that has a set of these wheels. They look like g6 gt wheels... but g6s have the 5x110 bolt pattern. I talked to the guy and he said that a guy with a 95 gp came down and tried them on his car and they fit fine. Haven't prixs had 5x115 since 88? Am I missing something?

    A pic of one of em:


    And if they would fit, how do you think they'd look on a white gp?

    Yeah, Idk. Maybe it was some other model and he got confused? But then again, aren't the only pontiacs with 5x110 the newer models? I'm emailing him so we'll see if his story changes any. Any other ideas?

    Well, they're about an hour drive away so I wanted to check out what you guys thought before i went the whole way down there.

    So you think they would look good if they would fit?

    Well he said they came off a grand prix and then the 95 came and they fit. This was before he knew I had a gp, so who knows. Is it a possibility that they could be aftermarket or something?

    Maybe it was actually a Grand Am that tried on the wheels... They look similar to the uneducated.

    Right, but that bodystyle of grand ams are 5x100 (I think) and the g6s are 5x110, so they still wouldn't fit... I already considered that

    Well, the guy hasn't emailed me back for a while... I'd really like to get down to the bottom of this...

    Can anyone think of any possible way these things came off of a gp?

    Chances are, he has no clue what he's talking about. Not only are the Gen I w-bodies 5 x 115, but they also have a goofy offset making most GM wheels in general not an option (i.e. your '02 wheels won't clear the front calipers of a Gen 5 GP).
