While out in internet world I found a couple of NGV (05+) wheels for cheep and got me wondering if they'd fit the GV's I have (02 and 04) Tyres on the rims I found are 225/70/16 so presume rim width is pretty close to what I have (am considering going this tyre size anyways for a modist increase in clearence) but I can't find any info on other specs Does anyone know offset and stud pattern specs for the new GV steelies or if they will fit the earlier model GV with out rubbing/fouling on suspension bits, brakes etc Here's a quick pic so you know what they look like

Pretty sure, the answer is no. They don't have a big enough centre hole?

This is copies from another website
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 4.5" (114.3 mm) Lug Nuts and Locks Thread Size: 12 x 1.25
This is for +05 model gv's. Dont know if they would fit older gv's.

Thanks for the very quick replies and info.
8 for $200 (maybe less if I bargined) is worth the small effort to find out I reckon. Few places said yes they should, couple said no way, one said they'd have to try and see to be sure. Couldn't get any info on offset yet but I'll keep trying so the info is here for others thinking the same thing.
I recall reading somewhere (buggered if I can find it now) that earlier GV's stud pattern is 5x5.5 but I'll do some measuring on the stud pattern to be sure. As Chop said, the centerhole could be the difference also

Thanks everyone for the info. Yes as said NewGV wheels will not fit the OldGV. Stud pattern, center hole (due to stud pattern can't be made larger) and offset all different and not really even close. Not a hugie really as I saw them cheeply and thought I'd make it look a bit different, not a huge change but enough for people to think, somethings different.
