SO I am having my wheels powder coated and saw this stamping on the wheels.

Front stamping


and Rear stamping.


I thought these wheels are identical? is should they always have the front wheels and rear wheels positioned in their marked places?\

Thanks guys

 

Let's face it, if you got them on azzbackwards, people would think you running a blown Civic...

 

On the coupe they have a raised edge to keep people from putting backs on fronts. Don't be that surprised, it happens all the time.

 

well here is the deal, I did not have this info and bought 4 tires from belle tire and they mounted rears on the front etc.. so after I observed this, Im wondering what the deal is on these wheels. whats the raised edge?

I noticed this immediately after fully inspecting them from removal

 

Try putting the rears on the front. If these are coupe wheels it matters.

 

i certainly do not want to mix these up if I don't have too, and yes this is a coupe and these are coupe wheels. Can you please explain its purpose and how the belle tire guys made this mistake, I would like to call and notify them but I don't want to be an A$$ for no real reason

Thanks for your help and response BTW

EDIT: Just called the dealer and they gave me bad information. They stated that the wheels are 18x9 in the back and 18x8 in the front........ yea, they are all stamped right in the wheel 18x8... so much for getting information from the source... idiots ....

 

Oh these are 18x8 coupe wheels, thank fully you shouldn't have to worry about moving tires, just be smart where you place them.

 

ok cool, so basically I shouldn't go yell at belle tire??

 

Not if you brought it to them that way....

 

If they are not smart enough to figurer out what goes where, hell yes yell at them.

 

I know i didn't bring them to them that way because i noticed a wheel from the back that had a rock chip was on the front this time around
