Hi, I'm looking for changing my gt4 stock wheels to something more custom, but I wanna make sure the wheels don't rub or touch the wings.
I searched around and I couldn't find the bolt pattern and offset of the stock rims ( those rims: http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS...uKe8AvQ&t=1 )

Another question, with the same wheel offset, can I afford to put 17" instead of 16"?

Hey Brother; check out the stickies... tons of information:

http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=69180

Look under the header, "Wheels, Rims, & Tires" - should be able to answer everything you need about offset, wheel & tire size, etc.

GL! And post your new rims when you get 'em! thumbsup.gif

215/50R16 is the stock size tyre

the stock size rim is 16x7.5 with

5x100 PCD, 1.5mm Thread Pitch, ET45 offset,

215/45R17 is a very very close match in in rolling diameter.

I run 225/50ZR16 Toyo tyres on my GT4 on the stock wheels which is fine on stock suspension, but when I lowered it, the tyres rubbed the springs in the rear so I run 15mm spacers back there (It only needed an extra 5mm clearance).

To run 215's or 225's, a wheel should be 7 - 7.5" wide, and if going with the wider option I'd recommend a wheel with an ET35 or ET30 to push the wheels out from the guards away from scrubbing the springs.

Also be aware of deep dish rims which may give you the right offset but wont clear the gt4 calipers.

Rolling diameters:
--------------------
215/50R16 (stock) - 621.28 mm
215/45R17 - 625.09 mm
225/50R16 - 631.19 mm
225/45R17 - 634.23 mm

Hope this helps.

Any wheel lower than ET30 may require guard rolling in the rear (the inner lip needs to be folded up)
