Red face Will these wheels fit? Help need asap!

Hey Guys,

My friend is selling his oem 18" Hyundai wheels with brand new tires for cheap!
The rims are:

Front: 18x7.5 +33mmSize Rear: 18x8.0 +33mm
Size Front: 225/45/18Size Rear: 245/45/18
Bolt Pattern: 5-114

Will they fit? or will I require spacers?

Thanks!

Why would you want to put Hyundai wheels on anything but a Hyundai?

They're nice looking wheels, and the Infiniti centre caps fit right in. So why not?

BUT - will they fit?

Yes they will fit but any wheels that you buy you should put one wheel on your car to make sure.

Yes they will bolt on if they're 5X114 but they will be sitting further back in the wheel well than stock wheels thus making it aesthetically unpleasant. (assuming you have a coupe)

Sizing will work, but make sure you get the right lug nuts and everything when you run these wheels. Not sure if Hyundais come with tapered seat lugs from the factory or anything like that.

IMHO, you can find a much nicer set of 350Z or G35 Coupe wheels that will:

1) Look much better
2) Will be wider and offer you better tire sizes for better comfort and handling
3) Probably be the same cost

Not to mention, I believe the center bore is slightly larger on Hyundais. Not by much, but if they require a ball-seat lugnut that could lead to vibrations if you can't find the right hubcentric ring (Google came up with a bore of 67.1mm).

Thanks VMRWheels
Those were the type of educated answers I was looking for.

Just to clarify: If they require mag seat lugs, the larger center bore won't be an issue - but if they require ball seat lugnuts and I can't find the proper hud ring then it's probably not worth it?

Fyi - these wheels and tires are brand new and only $600! I can't find a good set of oem nissan or Infiniti wheels and tires for under $1300 - that's why I'm considering this.

Thx,

Ok so they require acorn style lugs, but I did find a correct center hub ring.

Would you guys go for it?

I don't think you'll be able to find any ring for it considering the bore is 1mm off haha. Probably the thickness of one layer of electrical tape.

If they require acorn/tapered lugs though it won't be as much of a concern. That should center the wheels fairly well. Have you browsed the marketplace here? I'm sure you could find some OEM wheels fairly easily.
