A search didn't show much. Anyone have ideas as far as an adapter from the 120 hub to a 115 wheel? I found a lot of 4.75" to 4.5", but not many metric ones. Secondly, anyone know the stud length? I won't have my car for a few days, and I need these for a spare.

I'm not sure where you can find that size adaptor, but I think that you'll have problems if you want to run a wide rear tire (275+). This car already needs about 50 offset to run 285's, and with an adaptor on it would need to be way higher. Probably higher than most pre-made wheels come.

No, this will just be for some snows during the winter. The wheel is narrower than ours now, so clearance shouldn't be a problem then. Thanks.

The 4.75" lug is 120.65mm and you will be able to fit it on the G8.

So youre saying that these wheels will fit my 69 tempest with the proper spacers? They are 5 on 4.75.

I think that he has a point. It's only .026" total, which is only .013" for each side. That is VERY small.

The old-school 5x4.75" wheels won't fit a G8 properly. The bolt pattern itself is not the whole problem. For instance, I used Trans Am wheels (4th-gen) on my '05 GTO. Both of those vehicles had 12mm thick studs. The G8 studs are 14mm thick. They won't allow the stud to be centered in the lug holes unless the bolt pattern is totally correct. To be honest, you could probably get a cheap set of wheels to use during the winter, especially if you are planning to use snow tires. Check out Tire Rack's (http://www.tirerack.com) or Discount Tire's (http://www.discounttire.com) websites. You can sort by price on DT's site, & I think you also can on TR's site. Don't forget: 5x120mm bolt pattern.
