Hey Everyone!

As i need tires on my car at this time...i have been looking for many oem rims. I have some a-specs 8.5 wide sitting/stacked/no tires...but i want something different.

In my search i ran across "Wobble bolts" In quick summary they are lug bolts with a variable top washer that allows for a range of patterns to be used. The acceptable variance to my knowledge is 2.4mm....they all have a floating washer. In essence when tightened they go in straight but within their range. Safety concerns??? Been around for years with no reports i see of any fault. I would peg them safer than wheel adapters.

With that said 5x112 wheels (mercedes, audi vw amongst others at 115mm) come into mind...

Quick google search will lead to many results. The bolts themselves cost about 80-100$ for a set of 20.

On another note there is ONE oem wheel i am currently after as well. 16x7+5 offset. (low i know) They are commonly used in tuner market. Comes from late 90's Crown vics. BBS mesh wheels...with a stepped lip.
Open for feedback on anything. Pics attached

These are made for a VW or other car that uses lug bolts. An Acura uses lug nuts. How are you planning to use these?
