Any JDM wheels have the lug pattern 5x120? I'm thinking about getting a G8 and want volks or works but I'm not sure if they have that pattern

Yes, most of the brands come in that lug pattern. Think about it, you've seen M3s with volks, works, etc. right? Now will you find offsets, etc. that will fit your car? That I'm unsure of.

I was on the G8 forums and some of the guys on there said that volks doesnt come in that lug pattern..I know my trusted my350z.com clan would have all my answers Thats y i wanted to be certain. From my research(today), it seems like the to have a nice flush with the fender look, the offsets would have to be in the mid +30..but i still need to search and read more about the fitments

no set of wheels will wipe the ugly off of the g8. just take solace in the fact that you have an LS3 for 30k.

i think they look pretty good compared to the other monstrosity that pontiac has put out in the recent yrs... and the ls3 is definitely a plus. but i was actually gonna do the 6.0l v8

go here http://www.rayswheels.co.jp/
than choose from "Products" the second button from the left....there you could choose the wheel type...than click the pic of the rim you want,...now you should look at the rim you choose. on the top (right next to the rim name) should be another button.click on it and you´ll see a list with offsets, lug pattern, sizes etc.

i wishe it could have linked it but doesn´t work

JDM wheels on a domestic car... BOLD.

I like the motor, dislike the look of the car. I'm curious though, some nice Volks may actually MAKE it look decent.

They're forged, the weight of the car will not be an issue. They make TE37 that fit SUVs and they aren't manufactured any differently.

Being bold is what sets trends...
