Actually, Dario is the man on this one since he did it before I

Motegi MR7 17x7 will fit fine except that the rear grease seals have to be removed. Dario had replaced his with PVC endcaps I believe.

Why not get 18's? I am beginning to wish I had...death to ALL wheel gap

Check here for pics of what a Sterling Mist 2k Max looks like with them on. Keep in mind that I also have Maxspeed lowering springs on...

Not sure about other wheels. It has to do with the clearance inside the center hub...its just a little too small to allow the seal to fit inside...

I have the Ro_Ja Motegi's on my third gen. The axle hubs protruded a little too far for the center caps to work, so we actually ground a slight bit of material off of the end of the axle hub. I get a little rub on the front insides at full lock. We would've been better off with a 38 offset. Click my cardomain page to see them. They are the Neo 4.0's. Motegi's are made by American Racing.
