Not sure if anyone else has been looking at wheel options, BUT www.tirerack.com has a model of the car up and online to view wheels on our cars... HOWEVER I measured our wheel pattern as 5x100 Their website is showing the available wheel choices as 5x114.3 Regardless if you want to see what some aftermarket wheel options look like its up and running.

The more I am looking at wheels I'm leaning towards an 18x8 +45mm in the front and 18x8 +35mm in the rear (staggered) There is a lot more fender well room in the back than the front, and widening the stance in the rear would greatly increase the effectiveness of the double wishbone rear suspension.

Do you have any idea what wheels are on the concept? Looks like the type of wheels i'd go for:

Those are Rays Gram Lights 57Xtreme's... prepare thy a$$hole for the raping when you see the cost lol

I most likely measure incorrectly... if they are indeed 5x114.3 that is AWESOME there are a ton more wheel options available in that pattern than 5x100.

There's this place close to me that sells close out wheels pretty cheap have a look. Don't know if they ship as i just go there and they only have a few select wheels at any given time but I always buy there cheap.

I have not looked for the stamp... I'm assuming you have to remove a wheel... it's raining here right now. Do you know the width and offset?

This says 17x7, but it does not say the offset. LINK

What did you end up going with? I'm thinking I am going to hold off until spring for wheels and tires.

@Nick
i picked up a set of enkei ekm3 in gunmetal. im going to have them rim swap and just use the stock tires & tpms. same specs as stock the only difference being 5 less on the offset. i had this same set on my xb some odd years back.

This is the OEM rim specs? 17x7 +50 wrapped with 215/45/17??

I have a set of wheels from my previous car which is 18x8 +45 with 215/40/18. will there be any issue?

Maybe in the front... the rear would have the clearance though for sure...

Hello

For those who car, attached is a pic of the wheel specs. 17 by 7 +50mm offset as said above.

The hub bore is 60mm as measured with my calipers. Similar to newer TC wheels.

Thanks

a single iM rim lists for $475 and dealership cost was i think about $280.
