Wheel by wheel: offset and tyres

Each original wheel from Pontiac Grand Am is compared with the one from Chevrolet Alero of the same diameter: how much closer the wheel gets to the shock absorber or how far it sticks out of the wheel arch, and whether the tyre keeps the same overall diameter.

  • ≈7Jx15 ET8 · 225/70R15 — Check on the car

    Compared with the original ≈7Jx15 ET43 on Chevrolet Alero: shock absorber side −35 mm, wheel arch side +35 mm, tyre diameter +8.9 % : fit it with the original tyre size of Chevrolet Alero (215/60R15), not that of Pontiac Grand Am. Comparison for guidance only (estimated width). Check in detail

    Chevrolet Alero has no 14-inch original wheel in our data: check the approved fitments and caliper clearance.

Before fitting the wheels

An identical hub is not enough: offset, width and diameter change the position of the wheel, and larger calipers can touch a smaller wheel. Original wheels often use bolts or nuts with a specific seat: keep the fixings intended for the wheel, with the thread of Chevrolet Alero (Ecrous - 12x1.50), tightened to the torque shown on its vehicle page. Finally, check that the size is among the approved fitments for your vehicle. This comparison is for guidance only: have the fitting approved by a professional.
