Yes.....the idea is to try and not stray too far from OE offset though...

Looking for ideas on wheels for a 99 GC8 which clear the front brembo conversion. Currently have GD wheels on but looking for something wider to fill out the guards. Thinking 17x8?
I like the multispoke look similar to OZ Racing style in gold. Can anyone share their experiences and pics. Cheers

I have 17x8 CR Kai that easily clear the Brembo front and rear conversion maintaining the 5 x 100 pattern. Relatively common wheel choice for the GC, but it does suit the body well IMO.

18x8.5 +45/43 is already fairly flush. +22 with a 235 tyre will need some fender work and possible camber adjustment ti fit nicely.

Thanks Nick no they don’t scrub they just sit about 1” out past the guards especially on the front.
