Hey guys,

Can anybody tell me if there's any info on these wheels that can say for sure that I won't require spacers?

According to the seller:
"Note: These wheels have limited fitment due to spoke is too flat , Will not clear brakes without spacer on certain vehicle, Please check the fitment chart below, Vehicle info is required upon check out***

We can only confirm that these wheels will fit the vehicles as below, Spacer is required for all other vehicle , Please bid Accordingly***

Honda
Accord (5 lug) 1998-2002
Accord 2003 & up
Civic 2006 & up
Prelude 1997-2001

Mitsubishi
Eclipse 1989 & up

Toyota
Corolla 2003 & up"

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!!!

No spacers needed

Cynic.TV · 04-08-2014, 11:59 AM

I hope you're right, strongly considering buying these today or tomorrow. Anybody else have an opinion?

Friends don't let friends buy ugly wheels.

Cynic.TV · 04-08-2014, 12:13 PM

I could get behind the first set.

I look for concavity, one set of bolt holes, and no fake bolts... just so you don't think I'm a complete Debbie Downer, lol.

Cynic.TV · 04-08-2014, 12:34 PM

Haha I understand. I'd prefer to only have one set of bolt holes too but when your budget <$700 you can't be too picky. Trust me I'd love to go get some dope ass BBS's but I don't feel like taking out a loan to have better looking wheels. I'll save that nonsense for what goes under the hood.

These would be awesome on my black GT86. But, I don't like multiple bolt patterns, and they're a little heavy. So I got the Enkei Tuning Fujin instead.

Personally I would not buy wheels on eBay. Don't get me wrong, I buy a lot of stuff on eBay. Love that place.
But I end up with some sub-standard items, fakes and downright scams. I buy non-essential gadgets and toys on eBay.
Anything remotely related to the security of my person or my surroundings I do not buy on eBay.

I hope I'm right too and I think I am. It's your decision, so you might want to research more on the correct wheel size, offset, tire size before ordering these!

those are janky. if you're on a super limited budget, i would recommend looking for used set of legit wheel/tires.

Cynic.TV · 04-08-2014, 02:17 PM

All of that information seems to be like it would fit, the only issue I was wondering about was the spacers. I don't really know where/how to look to see if that will be an issue. I sent something to the seller to ask what I would need to measure to figure out if I need spacers or not.

What makes them janky? I doubt I'll ever have more than 350whp, it's not like they'd just fall apart... right?

What about the Enkei's? They're lower end but, they're still Enkei's, right?

Somebody said they're heavy but they're only 21lbs a piece, not terrible.

Also, they look pretty damn good on the Raven...
