2006 18 inch GTO wheels on 3rd Gen Camaro?



I am wondering if anyone has tried these wheels on their Camaro? The bolt pattern is correct 5x4.75 and they are eight inches wide. Not sure on the back spacing? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Mike

No they will not fit.

As far as i can tell its the same as the Australian counterpart that its based on, which is in fact 5x120mm not 4.75"/120.65mm. The offset is also way off.

Even if they are 5x120 and not 5x120.65 they will still work with wobble bolts, or if you just don't care run the normal lugs. How do you think people get BMW wheels on our cars?

I won't get into this argument over bolt pattern, a question was asked and i simply provided the facts, they are 5 x 120 not 5 x 120.65, and the offset is way different to 3rd gen offset.

What you do beyond that is at your own risk and/or discretion.

it is possible with modification is the correct answer, they will not fit without some sort of modification to correct the offset and bolt pattern
