8" rims should be a 48mm offset, as the GTO and G8 are 48mm

The correct sizes to use with you stock tires would be 20x8.5 front w/ +35offset and a 2.5"lip.
the rears would be 20x10 w/ +40offset and a 3" lip.
Your number don't match the service manual page, possibly because it's SS and service page is for LT? We need as much info on all the cars tho if we're gonna have accurate offsets for any width and any car, front and rear. Thanks.

Rob, so the GTO/G8 wheels are the same as the Camaro? We don't even have that yet, and we should...Thanks

Here is a pic of the markings on a 21" wheel. Would the offset be a 43mm?

Damn. The 20s didn't have that. Wonder why? I'm on my way home here in 5 minutes and will post pics of the numbers in about an hour.

Gotta stop and get some chlorine shock and algecide.

what WE need is a picture like that for EVERY car, LS, 1LT, 2LT, 1SS, 2SS, fronts and rears, THEN we will have all the inforamtion we should. That is why I started teh thread to begin with. Wyss, thank you VERY much for your contribution. but how about a picture of the front wheel? :{D

they are the same bolt pattern, 5x120 as far as i know
and it would make sense the they would have the same offset on the 8" rims too.

Not sure what the offsets are on anything that isn't 8" rims, but it's a start.

35mm on the 20" fronts and 40mm on the 20" rears.

Got a good picture of each but left the cord for the camera at work.

I'm all ate up. But those are the offsets.

PQ, those are fine! Looks like 35mm and 40mm, and those are the standard wheels on a 2SS, maybe milk will be willing to update the wiki once all wheels are confirmed... Thanks for your help buddy.


SS 20x8 = 35mm offset (front)
SS 20x9 = 40mm offset (rear)
SS optional wheels 21x9.5 = 43mm offset (front and rear?)
LT? 18x8 = 48mm offset
LT? 19x8 = 48mm offset

wiki shows 18x7.5 no data (unless these are the 18x8?)

I'm guessing 38mm. I'll checkmom my car tomorrow. Maybe I can get to the markings without having to take them off.

Was that etched on the inner lip of the rim?
