They wont stick out much at all. the rear is a bit aggressive but the fronts might need a spacer.

those are some really nice friggin wheels.... they'll work. rears should be pretty good but the fronts might want like 5mm spacers or something. very nice and you can get them to work no prob.

The rears are too aggressive in my opinion for the Sedan. I think the rear will stick out .75 inches.

As I read that thread the wheels are very hard to find and he only has one (1) front and one (1) rear. Two wheels total. Even if they fit where are you going to get to more wheels and how much will they cost? Buyer beware. Look like nice wheels and a good deal if you need two, different sized wheels.

they are NOT too aggressive... and you read wrong, it is a full set of 4 wheels. The seller was saying that 2 of the wheels are brand new in the box, never been taken out, the other 2 were taken out for pictures.


If you drop the car atleast 1.5" and run -1.8 camber in the rear with a 275/35 tire... they'll fit perfectly.

I wish I had a new sedan so I can do a measurement. Looks pretty close. Have you tried using this: Wheel Offset Calculator
It might shed some light.

that offset calculator doesnt mean a damn thing... it doesnt take into consideration if the car is lowered and how much if it is... or any camber specifications.

You know what does shed light... what i say, because i promise you, if i say it will fit, it WILL!!! as long as you follow everything i say

10-15mm spacers will make the wheels match.

The rears should sit super sex wheras the fronts will be sunken in. but the spacers should do the trick! Congrats! Stretch tire perhaps in the rears, Gdup35Sedan? dang, he beat me to the punch!

Aaah, OK. Post pics when you are done.

1.5" drop is larger than any brand name lowering spring I'm aware of for this car. You'll need to cut your springs or buy coilovers to get 1.5". Then -1.8, ok. Why anyone would want to do that to force fit a wheel?

I don't doubt if your do both of those things they will only stick out more than .25 inches. But they will stick out. My wheels are only 10" w/42mm offset, lowered on eibach and camber in factory spec. My wheels stick out a tiny bit. These are 1/2" wider and the offset is 9 mm more aggresive. You do the math. On my car these would stick out substantially. Crank the camber and force them under there I always say. If factory specs on a street cars don't matter why do they even measure camber.

The wheels look nice and seem to be for sale for a bargain. If that's 4 wheels, well this is how it reads:

They are BRAND NEW, still in box (2), and fit all vehicles with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern. The rims are staggered, with a 19x8.5 (ET +30) and 19x10.5(ET +33). They have a matte gunmetal finish.
