I guess I'm more interested in how they look on an s197. I googled it but couldn't find any pics.

Bolt pattern is the same. I test fit my Verde wheels from my 14 on my 16 and it fit perfect. Had to get new lugs though...

I was excited to see how they look too. Sub $200/wheel for a good looking wheel (on AM) is the tits.

After seeing the pictures on some S197s they just don't flow with the car in my opinion.

I was thinking about doing the OEM 15 PP 9.5" rears all the way around (with spacers to get the proper offset) on my tungsten 07 GT. Tried one on the front, the look wasn't doing it for me. Maybe the grey version available from the aftermarket might catch my eye more, not sure. Thought that I still had a few pics on my phone, but they are deleted apparently ... sorry.


cheers

I think the new model just used the metric measurements for the wheel's, but the pattern is still the same as what the imperial measurement we used is

The only difference is the lug diameter and associated lug nut size. Went from SAE 1/2-20 to metric 14-1.50. Small difference but significant. Still 5x4.5, aka 5x114.7.

One member has a blue S197 with S550 wheels and has posted pics of it. Looked really nice. It's in the lowered on 20's thread. Post #2491

Doesn't look bad at all. I'm trying to convince my friend to buy my PP wheels for his 14 5.0! Lol

The fact that the car is black helps a lot. She gets a lot of compliments on them.

4.5" = 114.3mm, not 114.7

Correct.

Personally, I think the optional 20" wheels look much better on S197s than those PP wheels.
