Can anyone tell me what wheels these are?
 

I bought my FRS with what looks like an aftermarket set of wheels on it. I don't see any markings besides the center badge that tells me the wheel make/model. I'm trying to buy some new purple lugs that will fit the bore of the hole and don't want to make a mistake so I'd like to check the diameter somehow.

Here's a picture of one of my wheels.

Did you take them off and check and back and inner parts for markings?

I would guess they may be cheap replicas based on the bolt pattern and the fact there are no markings on the outside

You're probably right about them being replicas. I want to take one off and check but the problem is when I bought the car it did not come with a lug key so I have to try to find some sort of socket/extension that will fit it. So much for buying from carmax. I didn't even get an owners manual.

Maybe it's time for me to start shopping for some new wheels. :)

@Tcoat has the manual right beside him right now, I am sure he can photocopy it for you :popcorn:

Good luck with getting them off

Can't help with what wheels but most large auto parts stores sell "universal" lug nut key sets (so much for them being locked).


As for the manual here it is:

I'll hit up autozone today and see about a universal key/lug nuts. Worst case scenario I can have discount tire remove them (they have all the keys apparently). I'm actually looking at a set of black Konig Control 18" but Discount Tire said my tires which are new (235/40zr 18 95w) won't fit the Konig's as they are too wide/big. Sounds like I may need to get a new set of tires to match the wheels.

Or do some more research to find a wheel that will fit my existing tires. This is going to get expensive but the alternative is to plastidip the wheels for the black look I'm wanting. (Yeah i know... i said plastidip)

Just buy some 8-8.5 wide 18 inch rims you will be fine.

hahaha I kinda want to pasltidip my OEM wheels just to see what black will look like on my car

The ones I'm looking at with Discount tire as the Konig Controls in black 18 X8 5-100.00/114.30 45. I'm thinking my tires will fit fine but Discount Tire says they won't know until the wheels come in (3 days). The tires on the car are pretty much brand new so I'd hate to have to spend a grip on tires when I don't need them.

And yeah, I'm considering plastidiping these wheels on the car to see how it looks. It's kind of cheesey/ricey but would give me a good idea of what the black wheels would look like on the car before I drop $$$

Yeah just spray em and see what you think for now. I say track day and buy new rubber when your done :burnrubber:

I like the way you think :) I'll go buy some dip and spray them tomorrow since it's a nice sunny day. May do my front and back emblems while I'm at it.

haha okay dont get too carried away!! :paddle:

do you not like those wheels, whatever they are? replacing them for a set of another generic wheels like konigs that look similar seems pointless to me (imo). if you want black, then just plastidip them and save yourself a few bucks. black wheels all look the same imo, and when it comes to black generic wheels they really look the same lol.

Just don't do the tail lights like the one dude I keep seeing around work!

:lol: oh yes I remember that
