Note that they're not runflat, so if you get a flat, you're stuck.

I have no idea what those wheels are. The issue would be to get wheels that have close to stock offset so there is no interference lock to lock.

Poke around on the Google to see if you can identify which wheels they are, and see if the specifications are close to that of the stock wheels you have.
Hey S-Dot.

I didnt get them for free, but the price I paid for brand new tires and 168 wheels, I couldnt pass it up.

Went to my garage and we installed them and they worked just perfect.
Yes they're a bit wider, which isnt the best of course, but with the limited mileage I do and all, it's gonna work just fine.

And yes, of course they're runflats.
So I wont get stuck! hehehe

I'll post a pic later!
