So I want to get rims and have really been looking at the Motegi MR116s, I am a newb with wheels, tires, etc. and don't know exactly what to get for my needs. I want to go 18" and safe to say 8" as well for the tire, so 18x8? The offset and such I am unsure of to get and as flush as I can with no rubbing. All the options on this site is confusing as well such as nut pattern? Help me out guys: http://www.elites-wholesale.com/Shop...m/1/menu_num/2 EDIT: linked fixed

Your post has nothing to do about rubbing right? Your BC's don't have a provision for the ABS cable do they?

From searching the site it looks like you only have two options for offset, +45 and +35. And yeah that site is real confusing. But I think you're definitely going to want to go with 18x8 +45. From using Wheel Offset Calculator it says that would push you out 20mm. I read somewhere warlord said 18mm is flush for the front wheels. Mine are 22mm out and you saw how they poke out a little in the front. So the front wheels would look really good, especially with your 1.25" drop. Then you could buy a pair of 5mm spacers for the back tires if that extra flushness was worth $100 to you The bolt pattern for our cars is 5x114.3.And those wheels would look sick! $136.50 for a wheel seems like a steal to me.

Thank you guys and Brian lol, but do I have to get the same nut pattern so the wheel will match up or can I get a different one? and sry about that link for some reason that site doesn't like linking to products. Also looking at the wheels now that I know the bolt pattern most of those say 114.3, so what is the difference between them then? I just really don't want to order the wrong wheels.. http://www.elites-wholesale.com/Shop...m/1/menu_num/2

"Thank you guys and Brian" what's that supposed to mean?! lol You HAVE to get the same bolt pattern in order for them to fit. Unless you wanna buy a conversion kit so you can have 4 bolts instead of 5.. which would be throwing away money. When you place the order you might wanna call and do it by phone because every wheel is advertised with two bolt patterns and alot of them repeat like you said. Motegi MR116 Black Wheels 18x8 Boltpattern 5x112 & 5x4.5 (5x112 & 5x114.3) Offset 45 Hub Bore 72.6 Partnumber MR11688046745 As far as Hub Bore I guess get 72.6 since it's closer to our 67.1 than 74.1 but either way you'll have to get centering rings to be hubcentric. I'd order those ^^ but I guess you'd have to call to say you want 5x114.3, not 5x112.
