Default GTO rims on Trans Am

In case anyone was wondering what they looked like. There were no problems with the bolts lining up. However the hubs needed a bit of grinding in order to make them fit properly.

I thought that was going to look terrible, but it actually looks pretty cool!

While I was waiting for the picture to pop up, all I could think was how bad that's going to look, but once the picture loaded, I was pleasantly surprised.

Thanks everyone. I'll get some more pics up once I get off work. The bolt patterns are a little different but not enough for it to matter.

GTO bolt patter is 5x120, just like the 5th gens. 4th gens and all the others have 5x4.75" also known as 5x120.65. The difference is about the thickness of a credit card in spacing between then studs. It's not proper, but it works. I could give 2 ***** about proper however.

Not a fan of GTO wheels but they do look good on your car. Now you just need a set of stranos.
