ebay wheels

I'm looking for some 18" wheels for my wife's '05 TL. I don't know the OEM bolt pattern, but i'm assuming it is 5X114.3?

What doe you guys think of these wheels?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-WH...ayphotohosting




I really need some suggestions, but the wheel i have pictured here is basically what i'm looking for. I was on here a few months ago and saw some wheels very similar to this pictured on a member's car, but can't seem to find it now.

What i really need to know is, what size tire should i go with on this rim? I want to keep the ride as stock like as possible. THanks.

5X114.3 is the correct bolt pattern. also, don't forget to check the wheel offset

Offset is +40mm, 8.5" wide it will fit. And they look good too. I like this design of the wheels. They look like BBS replicas.

So the 235/40/18's will get closest to the stock diameter to keep the speedo accurate, correct?

when your speedo reads 60mph you'll really be going 60.2mph

The ones with the Ferrari in the background? The ebay auction says "MRR" is the brand name of the wheels.


Will a wheel with a +40mm offset fit?

Still searching.....

Having a hard time finding decent wheels/tires in my budget. I really REALLY like these:

but can't afford them, i only have $1200 MAX to spend on wheels and tires.

I also like these ones too:

^^^ He said if the offset was + 35 ... but check the specs closely I think the offset on the ADR wheels is +40
