Not sure if I should post this in the rim/tire section but I figured I'd start here.

I'm wondering if these would fit with the larger wheel in the rear?

Offsets are way too agressive...

Contact the seller and try for different fitment.

haha!!

I thought our wheels were 5x114.3. I dunno.

I'm an idiot when it comes the offset.

What is yours?

They are 5x114.3.

Our factory offset is 40mm.

You can get away with mid 30's, 20 is too aggressive.

Heh... no pics of the rims on that eBay page when I just checked... BOOTZ, you looking for new rims?

I would definitely not go staggered. Not only is it pointless on a FWD car, but you can't rotate your tires either.

Aha! ... never thought of the rotation!

Especially if the tires are directional.

I dunno. I saw these and liked em. The rims I got now are from when I had my 300M. It was a candy red and looked good with the chrome. But I've been thinking bout something with black in em.

LOL, theres nothing hard about rotating staggered wheels besides dismounting the tires and flipping them over.

If anything it just costs a little more.

Gotta pay to play ya know?

Not sure what that accomplishes though. The fronts will still be in front. The rears will still be in the rear.

Staggered on FWD is pointless IMO.

hope you live in the south where there are less potholes, but when you hit one, POP GOES THE 20" and not to mention the after bending on the rims. And maxi is a FWD, arent the dimension in the front bigger then the back ?? consider that ??? and ebay ???

Front will stick out and rear will stick out way too much, specially with 275 tires.

You need something like 20x8.5 +35mm offset and 245 35 20 front and 20x10 with like +40mm, 42mm offset rear to run 275 30 tires.

I live in Milwaukee,WI and have had 20's for years and 3 different cars. Never had a problem with "POP GOES THE 20".

Just can't drive like an idiot.
