i looked around for a while but didnt find any 15" rim to fit over my breaks. i ended up buying a stock set of calipers and disks and have to change them over when i race. im not sure on what size set up you have but i believe my hsv are 330 up front and 315 rear ?

I wasnt aware the US GTO had bigger brakes than a stock monaro here. The stock steel wheels fit over the brakes (you will prob have one as a spare?) NVU (sponsor) have the steel wheels very cheap.
16" stato/caprice wheels fit over the 315mm HSV brakes perfect. Ive fitted 255/50/16 MT ET streets to a set.

I assume that the rear brakes are the same size. But my spare is a 17" wheel that is a black powder coated aluminum. If someone ca tell me what the stock rear brake size is on a Monaro I will check mine next chance I get and see if they are indeed the same. I can't for the life of me think that they would be differenet though.
What is the width of the 15" wheels that they sell?

What is the weight of the 15x7's? I'm trying to figure out if its cost prohibitive to ship a pair of these to the states?

It would probably work out more cost effective to buy yourself a cheap set of alloys. They'd be lighter too for drags.
Go for a 15x8 120x5 PCD with a 48 offset and your laughing.
