Wheel purchase

I have a 04 6MT TL and I am looking to purchase a set of wheels but theres two applications I can choose from, one being automatic and the other being 6sp manual...now can i purchase the ones under the automatic application becuase I didnt think that would make a difference.

if you have an 6M/T then your brakes are bigger and you need a wheel that will clear the brembos.
if you choose an automatic "wheel" it will not clear the brembos. and you'll run into trouble.

^^^This. Since you have the 6MT, you should have the factory brembo's up front so you have to look for a wheel with an offset that will fit it. I'm searching for wheels also....gl

yup, if you had an automatic you could get away with a 6mt wheel but not the other way around.
