How about these wheels?

Have you done so much to the car today that it just doesn't fit into one section, or are you too damn lazy to split it all up? Either way, this is the section for you.

I learned that the offset of the 15" graphite 4X100 konig rewinds is 40mm ... will that rub with a 195x50x15 tire on there?? $420 a set plus shipping from http://www.technotoytuning.com

Jimbo I thought you found them for $94 a piece.. where was that at??

that offset should JUST clear the front springs, Jimmy. My 16s are ET40 and 205 tires rubbed the springs, with 5mm spacers they have enough clearance.

Jimmy, you're right, the guy told me about the 40mm offset, but with some spacers I should be good. Good thing I already have spacers.

I found the wheels locally here for $94 a piece. Check the Konig site to see if there is a dealer close to you and ask him. But that price isnt bad if shipping is included.
