    Stock Wheels:
    2007 Grand Prix GT SE, 3.8 Supereater.
    225/55R17
    Paired 18 Spoke w Open Lugs, Smoke Brilliant, Option P04
    17x6.5 5-115 ((Offset.... No Clue!!!!!))

    New Wheel Breakdown:
    I want to run an 18 inch wheel, 8-9 inches wide preferably. The offset is where im stumped, because i dont have a stock rim offset im not sure how to calculate a good fit. The tire size im going with is 235/45R18 94W (Should i go 245/45R18?). Im not looking for something over the top and complicated, just chrome and a tad bit wider tire, and sized the same front to back.

    30-40 offset is good.

    You need to run a 245/45/18 to be the same size as stock and not to mess with the speedo.
