I found a steal for a brand new set. the offset is perfect. and if they work out good I will let you guys know where to buy. I will be the guinea pig because one of the wheels on my car right now is warped. :) lol please let me know how it rides and does it go on/off easily or do you need to force them on there?

couple broken studs over the years, but can't say for sure the wheel is the cause. I don't see a problem with it.

I run this bolt pattern with no issues. I even drove 13 hours (both ways) with these wheels when on travel 2 years ago.

I think I have had two broken studs over about 5 years. Could have been from over torquing the wheel lugs, or just because I have the wheels on and off more than your average guy. I have trusted the car from Pittsburgh to Tampa on more than one occasion.

do you have a picture of your wheels? and thanks for the info. reason i asked about pics is bc in your sig it shows stock wheels so just wondering. also when you throw the wheels on do you have to force them on or do they slide off/on easily?

Since I bought my car, it has had three different sets of 114.3 bolt pattern rims on it. Never an issue, never a broken or stripped out stud. It came with this size in a set of 16'' American Racing rims, removed those a year later for some 17" Eneki's, about 2-3 years later removed those for some 18" HP Racing rims.

Its a "close fit" and it does work for many.

Like a 235/45

It's a little shorter than stock so my speedo reads 5% fast
