Hey guys I have some rims from an old car still laying around they are 114.3 though will that make a huge difference from the 115?? Whats the hub bore also?? This hub bore is 56.1? Also the offset is 48 and they have i believe 235 45 18 kuhmos on them. Any chance this setup would work with the gxp?

What are they off of? Mustang bolt pattern is 114.7, right? Not sure but O wouldn't think .7mm would be a huge difference. See if they bolt up.

There is no 114.7 bp, it's 114.3.

No way...The hub bore on our cars is 70.3, iirc. Offset is close to stock SS offset of +52, though...which matters not since it won't fit over the hub.

Yes, the difference between 114.3 and 115mm is negligible, but it's completely up to you to drive on them. Some will say that your wheels will eventually fall off, since the lugs are not 100% seated properly; others will tell you they've driven on 114.3 forever without an issue. Personally, I would rather deal with the limitations of the 115 bp and get the correct fitment.

5x114.3 wheels will work with hubcentric rings and the correct hub bore. there's mixed feelings on running them though, some people will say the wheels will fall off if driven hard. I'm not to scared about it, and will be running some 5x114.3 wheels shortly.
