19's on GTOs...

Can I see some pics of GTOs on 19 inch rims...? Any issues with rubbing, and what dimensions and offsets will I need? Thanks!!

Front 8", can get a 9" in back it's tough. Better to run 8" all four corners. I recall the offset being around 38 mm.

CCW 505a:

19 X 8.5 with 245/35 KDW2 for the front.
19 X 10 with 275/30 KDW2 for the rear.

Trimmed fender lips down to the spot welds. Used 1/4 inch spacers up front to eliminate strut rub (the stockers had it, also).

Too bad the car's been turned in due to the lease ending

Yes, the wheels were sweet, but a lot of work to keep up, too.
