? about wheel offset and headers I am seriously thinking about trading in my TA for a new '04 (blue). I have HRE 543's on my TA and am wondering if they will fit on a GTO. 19x10.5 rear and 18x9.5 front. It is the C5 offset (which fits an 4-bod perfect). Also, if I get this car the 427 will be going in it. Does anyone make 1 7/8 headers? All I can find are 1 3/4, which is too small. Thanks!

Nope...those wheels wont fit 
The GTO bolt pattern is 5x120, same as BMW i believe. They are also way to wide. the max in front is like 8" and in the rear like 9.5", and with that you most likely will have to roll the fenders. BMR's GTO has 10.5"s on it, but they had to do some major work to that thing for those to fit. Im sure with the headers you could find someone to do custom for you. Might wanna check out ls1gto.com for more info.
