17x7 IS300 Rims

I love these rims, and no, they're not very original given the number of IS300s driving around, but they're cheap on eBay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...geName=MERC_VI

The bolt pattern is 5x114.3 but the other specs don't match 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 60.10mm Bore versus 12x1.25 Lug-nut / 66.10mm Bore for our wheels (http://www.speedstash.com/wheelguide.html). Would they work with our bolts and nuts?

Changing the center caps might be a problem, although in the photo here it looks like the Nissan cap from my SE rims MIGHT fit (is there a fairly standard size for center caps?)

Finally, does anyone know where I could find the weight of stock IS300 rims?

I really want 17x8s but these are beautiful rims and cheap....

1) Hub bore is too small. You have to get it machined out to the proper size.
2) You also have to get the lugs machined out I believe.

IMHO, not worth it.

Jeff is right...but I think the only thing you have to get done is getting the hub bore machined out.

Hey, I love the rims, I don't give a **** how "played out" people think they are....I'd much rather have a nice played-out rim than a brand new, original, creative, ugly as hell rim.

But if you have to get the hub bore machined, it's deinitely not worth it. Thanks for the info...what exactly is the hub bore?
