Re: snow tires
Cant help on the backspacing of those rims but our cars use 5x120 bolt circle so those wont fit.

Thanks, I thought so but they came off a G8. Guess they are not the same or guy gave me wrong numbers.Oldblue68chevy wrote:Cant help on the backspacing of those rims but our cars use 5x120 bolt circle so those wont fit.

Re: snow tires
Can't help with the wheels but I have some General Altimax Arctic on my Crown Vic and put them on my wife's car. I went thin, 225, and have had incredible success thus far. If I were to put snows on the Caprice I would absolutely go with them again. And as stated, 5x120 is what you'll want. I believe I've seen instances of guys putting different bolt pattern wheels on the G8s, but maybe the 120.25 or whatever it is... 114 seems like a bridge too far.

EDIT: Saw your WTB ad for 4 stock wheels so I could imagine that that is the route you're going.

Re: snow tires
Thanks, 5x120
offset 46mm
center 66.9- (70.3)
sums it up.
235 55 17 can replace stock 235 50 18 s if you want to drop down a size for snows.

Re: snow tires
You sure about that? I thought we had to have 18" wheels to clear the front brakes.cerbomark wrote: 235 55 17 can replace stock 235 50 18 s if you want to drop down a size for snows.
