Not really a Yaris question but the GTO forums are devoid of active members and are no help.

I can't find any rims for my GTO that I like and I was thinking black chrome would be kinda nice -or anything else that's not the status quo. But no companies seem to make them. Anyone know where I can find some or know of a company other than Tirerack that can help me. Thanks. :biggrin:

Thank you.

Any other help is appreciated. Like any ideas for what would look nice on a blue GTO.

I'd prefer to stick with 17's but I'm looking at 18's too. I just like clean simple but unique looks. See my Yaris for example. :) That's why Chrome was out, but black chrome sounded nice.

^ The skinny star design?

^^ I actually don't know the bolt patter or offset. It's a five lug I think. Lemme check........:burnrubber:
Yup, 5. But I don't know the pattern. I don't know rimspeak. :(

5x120 is the bolt pattern on the new GTO's.

And they will fit the Corvette rims on them, even though the Vette wheels are 5x4.75. It's close enough.

Yeah those are the rims I was thinking of. I don't really like them for the GTO. A little thin and too common around here. And thanks for the bolt pattern stat.

^ and ^^ ? :p

Try wheels from Australia where the GTO comes from and is called a Holden Monaro. I think there's a local brand, Simmons.

The Holden Mararo CV-8 rims are actually my top choice. But they say CV-8 on them and the cost of shipping makes them around three grand to get here. But I like the way you think. :p

www.wheelfire.com is pretty cool ... I have bought a few sets of rims from them; and I recently purchased a set of 18"s for my car. They are on back order, so I'll get them eventually lol
