Reply to "GT 5 Wheel Offsets"

Yes, looking at various after market wheels. Probably going to go with the Cobra style, polished in 17's. For the money, they are some of the nicest I've seen compared to the others out there and what the people selling them think their's are worth.
My current set up with the original GT-5 wheels are as close to the outer edge as I think they should be. I have about 1 finger room from the tire to the inside of the fenders, both front & rear. The current set up doesn't rub or hit anything. Going from 15's to 17's shouldn't change that, that is I understand you correctly.
But I am going to do the measurements as you instructed to see what I come up with.
As long as I stay within the proper total height wheel & tire wise, taller wheel, less sidewall on the tire, I should be ok rubbing wise during turning on the fronts.
Got to order these wheels, then they are made and there's no going back once their done. Want to make sure I do it right the first time.
Great advice, thank you very much Michael.
