Default Anyone running the KMC GTX's

in black? Was wondering about them. Haven't seen anyone with them on. I saw they have them for the 5-120 bolt pattern but not our 5-4.75...so anyone have them? I was told they DO make them in our correct bolt pattern. Thanks

No 120 is 120mm....120.67=4.75 2 different bolt patterns. 25.4 div by 120.67=4.75

5-120mm is a BMW bolt pattern for a lot of the 3 series. So that is why I was asking if they made it in the correct bolt pattern since I only saw 5-120mm and since I don't like to put the wrong bolt pattern on my customer's rides I won't do it for mine even if I have to "Massage" it a little to make it fit.
Hmmm...sucks I really like these wheels in 18's. Oh well.

This is correct. I was hoping someone would post the correct math on this b/c there are ALOT of people who don't understand 120mm is NOT 4.75".

True alot of people run the Ruff wheels & others that have a 120mm pattern but they also have to run hub centric rings b/c our cars are lug centric.

It happens a lot...I know of some places that have sold the Grand Am, Prix, and Caddy folks etc etc..who have a 5-115 bolt pattern a 5-114.3(5-4.5)because it's close. They just wiggle them till they fit and put rings on them to keep the vibration down to a minimum.
