2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GT After Market Wheel Hub Centric Ring

I have a situation with my after market wheels that I'm dealing with. I've had these wheels for years to only figure out now what the problem is that I'm having. I put on new wheels after destroying one of the O.E. wheels. The wheel store that I purchase my new wheels from added spacors on my back wheels in order for them to fit. I questioned their actions at the time but I didn't have time to deal with them. For years now I could never get my car to drive without vibration. I've had countless alignments and wheel balances. I have no luck with wheels and now I have another one that is bent with a flat spot. So, I've decided to purchase another set of wheels. At the time of checkout I noticed that this company sends hub centric rings with the order. Before I purchase another set of wheels can anyone tell me the inner and outer diameter of the hub on my 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GT? I'm willing to spend $29 vice $500 to fix my problem if possible. I thank you in advance for any and all help.

The best/most cost effective fix is probably going to be to just buy a single wheel to match your stock set and just be happy with what God gave you.

I went through that whole ordeal too man with my old car, No Fun, spacers are bad news too, not to mention not safe.

Thanks for the input. At this point I have no other option but to purchase new wheels as I no longer have the stock ones. I'll try to find the hub centric rings at one of the local shops.

Why not get a set of wheels that fits without spacers or hub centric rings?

Bolt pattern is 115x5, and I'm sure someone else can help you would with the offset. I dont know it right off the top of my head.

You are right. I'm tired of fooling with the whole situation. New wheels it will be.
