cant really help you with the camaro wheels...but I don't think you'll be able to fit a 305 out back on a GTO without pretty significant modifications.

the wheels need to be modified, and the stock camaro tires are way too tall for the goat.

I wouldn't do 19s but thats just my opinion. 18's are plenty for the GTO wheel wells.

18's are the limit for the GTO.

Anything bigger, and it comes off like this....way too much wheel, and not near enough tire.

I disagree. I have 19" ROH Drift R's and they look pretty good to me on my car.

Pacesetters are junk Dude. I had really bad long tube primary / steering linkage contact when turning left at wot. There is nothing like installing headers on a Gto only to remove them two weeks later. My knuckle scars never go a chance to heal.

Just out of curiosity... why are you turning left at WOT?

Here on Australia, the original Monaro came with 17" wheels on the supercharged V6 known as a CV6, the LS1 Monaro came with 18" wheels.
19" wheels are standard factory fitment on the early HSV GTS and the last series of HSV GTO's.

I don't think PS are junk, I think the way you installed them was junk.

While they rusted and looks like **** quickly, they fit just fine on my car and had no problems with clearance on anything once installed properly.

i read lots of reviews on PS and from what im reading i need to get the jet coated from maryland speed. that will eliminate any rust problems. but i still have to get the connector pipes. comes up to around 600 bucks i believe. i got a guy to install cheap(case of beer and taco bell) i decided against the rims and im just going to get new tires. what do you think about the nitto INVO?
