Very well could be. The centercaps that come with the new wheels are about 2 1/4 bore diameter, and 2 1/2 inch face. My center caps on the 18's are (guessing) probably 1 3/4 bore and a 2 inch face.
Were you able to reuse the factory lugnuts? I assume so since these are designed to be direct replacements but want to make sure I don't need to order a different set.

Thanks

The website says won’t fit with Brembo brakes. That means performance pack GTs can’t use theses, dang it.
we have 2-3 PP GT's in our group running these with no issues, they fit and look great from what i've seen.

Yep, factory lug nuts work perfectly fine!

IS THERE ANYONE ON THE FORUM WITH A 19x10 SQUARED SET UP?

THIS IS A REDICULOUSLY COST EFFECTIVE OPTION.

I was ready to order a set but decided to go with a set of factory 20s instead at the last minute. A friend of mine did order a set but had not put tires in them yet b

As long as you're happy. They're really heavy, though (35 lb each).

Yeah they're really heavy. For street driving I can't see that it matters much.
A bit worse ride both from the shorter sidewall and increased unsprung mass. Some acceleration and braking degradation but unlikely to be noticed much on the street.

Yep. Well worth the tradeoff for street use to me. I still may pick up a set of the OE replicas though. The website says these are discontinued and I wouldn't mind having a set in the corner for next time I want a change.
