'99 gt wheels VS. '05 Gt wheels. Differences?

[kovacs22]

I can pick up a set of '05 gt wheels and tires DIRT cheap, but i hear the offest is different, does anyone know for sure and wether or not i could cure the offset with wheel spacers??

thanks,

The 05 GT wheel tire size is 235/55/17. I'm pretty sure you can cure the off-set with wheel spacers. But why go a less wider rim?

05 gt has more offset

Is the 05 rim not 8 inches?

so more offest meaning it can be cured by wheel spacer? or more offest as it already sits too far out?

The 05 GT has 8" rims...no smaller than the 99.

Well you've aksed a good question there - And I'd bet you nailed it with the second half of the post...if the offset is too great, spacers would simply make situation worse! I thought I read somewhere that the 05 rim would fit the SN95 Gen2 well...hopefully someone with experience will pipe in.
