They will fit, at least on base/GT. Not sure about GXP. They have the same bolt pattern (5x120) and centerbore (66.9mm) and very similar offsets as the G8 wheels.

They will fit across the board on all of the models including the GXP. Only real issue is that you might have to roll the fenders.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the CTS-V wheels look similar to the GXP wheels. I always thought they were the same...

They are made by the same company, the GXP is a 19x8 on all 4 corners. The CTS-V sedan has 19x9 up front and 19x9.5 in the rear and I believe the coupe is a 19x9 front and 19x10 in the rear.

The spokes are also different at the center point as well near the point where the lugs are in the wheel.

Incorrect, SuperAlloy makes both the GXP and CTS-V wheels. Enkie makes the 18" and 19" wheels the V6 and GT use.

In that case, are you sure that all of the wheel options are made by the same company? It was noted on the G8 forums that the GT Sport wheels were made by Enkei.

The GT 18" and 19" wheels are made by Enkie, but the GXP and CTS-V wheels are made by Superalloy.

That's quite subjective. I don't like them. I think my OZ's look better than any wheel GM has released. But, again, it's subjective, so feel free to disagree. (You can see a kinda-crappy quality pic if you check my profile.) You like the Camaro wheels, I like these OZ wheels, and some people might like the CTS-V wheels the most.

What are the specs (width, bs, offset, ect) on your OZ wheels? What size tires are you running?

I think you got the right thing going. For the price of the CTSV wheels you might as well get some aftermarket wheels so you can run some real tires.

While I'd love to talk about my own car, I feel like doing so in this thread would be disrespectful to the OP.
