hey at $80 for 8 wheels how could i go wrong. decent offset (about +19) and light enough for the 4 cylinder motor. just filed out the centerbore about 1mm with a rat tail file and they are hubcentric now too.
and not to mention i ate thru 10 tires today in this little 100hp buzzsaw.. hella fun car.
