i believe theyre 18 x 8 front and rear with a +30 offset and a 5 x114.3 mm bolt pattern

center bore is about 66.1 which should fit

also hub centric rings will help

only way to find out is to test fit before purchasing

those dont look as nice in black as the ASA's. im still leaning more towards the silver side though as its a closer color to gunmetal, which IMO fits our color the bestt. then would be silver, then would be black. for silver if u get bored of it you can always paint/powder coat it. haha let us know how your search for wheels go!

nevermind. these wont fit since the centerbore is 57 and will need an adapter to convert from 5x112 to 5x114.3

Hey Defcon,

What kind of rims are the 3rd picture on your original post (image Tsx2e)?

Those look pretty sweet!


Thanks -
