with the excitment building up inside me i cant help but sit here and plan on what i will do with my g8. question however, since i have never had a set of aftermarket offset (staggered) wheels before, will these wheels work? im planning on getting these (19")in black with the polished lips if they will work, and getting my g8gt in the dark graphite color. i do plan on lowering it and doing it the right way, just not the springs but hopefully a whole setup. to me the ccw sp20's would make this car look amazing! just think about it... slammed g8gt on those wheels, and a aggresive tune, exhaust and cai setup to boot.... mmmmm sex

Chill,
CCW build really nice wheels, these are a three piece wheels and they will be able to build a set for the G8 with no problems the fittment will be perfect !! you may also want to take a look at Simmons wheels also a great choice but a little more expensive I may just throw a set of these on my car

but i would really like the HVS GTS wheels but they want alot of money for them considering they one peice wheel,

Those are sweet wheels. I'm looking at CCW's, but am torn between the 500 and the 505. Unfortunately I won't know until the car comes in so I can see it first hand.

The HSV 20" wheels are nice and expensive. Maybe because they are only made for HSV cars? Im all about the deep rear lips, so i want to find a 22" wheel that will give me about a 5" lip. That would look mean with a drop. Big Car Big Wheels!!

the 500's in my book look much better. i believe on these cars a solid spoke would look more aggressive and complete on these cars. both wheels however are sick as hell... ccw makes amazing wheels!

that would loook good g8g! 19's are plenty big for me, i just want real wide, big lip and some sidewall on my tires... the ride will most likely be rough due to lowering, so the thicker sidewalls will absord some of the imperfections. plus, 19" ccw's will most likely cost me over 3k anyways, i would hate to see what a set over 20" would run... scary lol

i just wish we knew what all the specifics are going to be on these cars, so we could figure out exact offsets, fitments and such... the anticipation is killing me!!!

22x10. I think they fill up the wheel well nicely. He also has a drop not sure how low and the gts already sits 1/2" lower to begin with.

The first two sites that popped up on yahoo search. They will be cheaper because the aren't 3-piece wheels, but the design gives them a multi-piece look. The lip will actually look chrome because of the stainless steel technology than a polished lip.

very interesting... has anyone ever thought about running 19's front, 20's back? or any other equivalent size matchup?
