hey whats up.. anyone know the lug pattern on an 87 gxl? also i got some 18x9 rims i want to put on my car.. anyone know what a good offset is for 9" rims to fit on the car? i know i can put mustang cobra rims on it and theyll fit. so anyone got any answers or know where i can get one for these questions?

thanks in advance...

This may help you, I don't know.



I have an 87 GXL. I run 17 X 7.5 - 114.3 38S wheels



I am really not sure what the last numbers mean but I believe the 38 is the offset and the 114.3 is the lug configuration. The 114.3 seemed to be a common number seen on all wheels for the GXL so I figure it is the 5 lug configuration and the distance between lugs or across lugs I don't really know. Hope this helps.



With the offset and 7.5 wide wheels I am very close to scraping the springs. I have Eibach aftermarket springs and they come really close.

on a post-it by my monitor, I have written: 5x114.3 or 5x4.5 inch
