Yes they are GTO spares machined and powdercoated. The tires are M&H front runners.

Interesting! What machining needed to be done? Change the backspacing to fit the fronts?

Too bad there is no way in hell they will fit a GXP.

They fit fine on the GT as is. But they took off the lettering and machined the inside for bigger brakes. Have no idea if they would fit GXP brakes, they might with a spacer. Mine have fit on the front of a Corvette if that helps.

Thanks! Yeah I was gonna bump it up but a Firebird nitrous guy popped his junk before I was going to run again so that killed my motivation, I was happy to drive home, haha.
