I don't think it's possible to safely turn these rims into 15x4's . . . if I remember correctly.

also, did anyone use g-body parts for this? How does the gold match the originals?

Most shops remove center section clean etc. And add a new rim ring. Like the big boys do on mutli part rims . I dought the 4" rim .
Most dont have same shaped rims when done . There is a post about it on here some where. As for the gold you can get every color of the rain bow . They have the factory colors .

They can get pricey ...

You can see pics of 15x7s & 15x8 Olds 442 ralleys in my pics on my old 442. Unless you are going for the pro street look you can already get a pretty good big little look with the 15x7s & 15x8s just by useing different tire sizes. Plus you can still keep a car that can go around a corner. 15x4s will really suck for that. Anyway just a fwiw.
