Damn GM and their SS lug pattern!

So I was at my dealer to order an SS the other day and not having any luck on ordering a G85 05', going to check with friends in management at Lordstown but who knows. Anyhow.

I work for the largest independent designer/distributor/importer of custom automotive wheels in the US. WHAT THE HELL is GM thinking with a 5-110 lug pattern on the SS?!!??!

Thats basically the rarest pattern there is. I could custom drill 2-3 models of our tuners with center caps but I don't like the designs.


Has anyone put wheels on a SS, and if so, where are they from?


Thanks

I couldn't imagine changing the rims on my SS. I think they're perfect. It does suck that the lug pattern is screwed up though. What does GM stand to gain by doing that?

Ya kidding me?? The stock rims are.....interesting.

I've been in touch with the USA's largest Volk distributor............. working on the pattern problem.....

The newest Malibu's I believe are also 5-110. Sucks.

I believe it is the same as the GTO pattern, in which they are in the same boat. But there are some out there, just have to look around.
