THought I'd see how they look on Darth. Pretty nice, apart from making it look like a 4x4....

They would look nicer if they were bigger. Reminds me of the old Ferrari wheels!

At least, your bumper is the same color than mine! :P

They are 16x7's with 205/50/16's so slightly undersized tires (by about 5 percent).

Oh look, the 242 is trying out some shoes too....

Hmmm, needs a little more room there...Dale? Turns out they're "only" 7.5 inch wide so that makes it a bit easier.

A little snug up in there huh? :P What do you need to correct offset? You should try to do thta on the front anyways... I've got 5mm and 13mm spacers and some 20mm adapters (on the wagon right now). Others are available but not immediately...

well matt did mention you're not really using them, along with those extra long studs, and that you might be willing to part with them. We figured 10mm would be minimum, 13 would probably be great, and 20 for the rear is what dr dupuis ordered. Let's talk...

Yup...got some studly hubs for those 13mm spacers. Maybe we'll get lucky and the hubcentric ring on those spacers will match your wheels...

I'll need your old hubs though...

Ah, didn't think about the hubcentric bit. We can look at it sometime AFTER I get this thing running...
