    Is this a good deal?

    Guy on Craigslist is selling some BBS RC 18" rims for 750 but If I could get them to 650 is that a good deal? They have tires with 65% tread

    are they 5x100mm? your bolt pattern is 5x112mm. what's the offset? you'll have to calculate that against the adapters(spacers) that you may have to run to see if you'll rub...

    they could fit if you do all the math first to make sure that it is physically possible. sometimes it is not possible to add the thickness of a 5x100 to 5x112 adapter plus the offset of the wheel. all the depends if you're are lowered too. when your vehicle is low your options decrease with respect to less room in the fender wells...

    the 114s can work with wobble bolts alone. still, you have to check the offsets...
