16" wheels WILL NOT clear our brakes. I thought I've told you that before a few times?

Any 5x114, 5x114.3, 5x115 17"+ wheel will work, but the hub may need to be bored out.

There's a member with 17" Cobra wheels on a GXP, looked pretty good too. I ran 16" Mustang wheels for DR's. It's definitely not recommended, but they didn't give me any problems.

On my 2007 ImpSS ONLY 5x115 will work. 5x114 or 5x114.3 WILL break studs eventually. I would figure the same would go for the GXP's too.

Has anyone actually tried fitting 16" wheels on a GXP? I've seen people post garbage about 275 series tires mounted on front wheels not clearing in the rear, which isn't true.

The non crosslaced 16" GP rims will fit in the rear but with very little clearance.

Fitting 16s on the front? No chance.
