Look at the name of the pic "CCW." I can't remember the model name/number, sorry.





Peace,
Craig.

The wheels on the prototype GTO were in fact CCW's. Those are my favorite rims. (the 505a's)

You will probably have fitment issues. Especially if you are lowered.

Pirelli P-Zero's come in that size. In fact, those are what's on that car.

BTW, that's my friends car.

you could fit a 305-315 probably with minor mods (sledgehammer to wheelwell) and rolling under the fender.

305/30/19 - Pirelli P-Zero Rosso

315/25/19 - Pirelli P-Zero Rosso
Michelin Pilot Sport Ps2
BFGoodrich G-force T/A KDW NT


If it was me though i would just go 19x10 all around and do 275 front 295 rear. should fit pretty easily
