Wheels with tires For Sale: Black with polished lip Motegi SP5s 18inch!!!!!
Wheels are just over a year old with about 14,000 miles on them no scratches not ever been curbed, wheels are flawless. 5x110 18x7.5 with a 42 mm offset. They are satggerd looking but all of the wheels are the exact same size, The rear lips are bigger than the front. No TPMS My car is an 2007 and it wasn't offered. Im not 100% sure they will fit over brembos but im about 90% sure they will. These wheels have never seen snow or salt they were only on during the summer . I always kept them clean .The tires are Kumho Ecsta AST 225-40-18 with about 16,000 miles on them they have alot of tread left. Price is 900.00 Firm!! i would prefer pick up but i will ship, buyers pays all shipping and handling charges i will drive 50 miles to meet someone from area code 45015. Since the pics i have put almost 2,000 miles on them so the tread may be just a little bit lower than what you see but the wheels look exactly the same.
Bump!!!

since motegi cannot know which car their wheels are going on, they cannot make a wheel exactly fit every hub out there. they make the hole in the center of the wheel the largest possible and then use a hubcentric ring to take up the space between the wheel and smaller hubs.
if you do not use a hubcentric ring where one is needed, the impact forces the tire/wheel experiences will be absorbed as a shear force on the lug studs instead of the wheel and hub.
in other words, the wheel should fit snugly on the hub so it bears the weight of the car, rather than bearing the weight of the car on the lug nuts or lug studs.
it is very possible that if you do not use the correct hubcentric ring where it is needed, that you could shear all four or five studs off the hub and lose a wheel.
Price lowered!!!!!!!

Nope, but i know they will, They are exactly the same size wheels as the TC with the same size off set and all. And the spokes stick out further than the Tc wheels. deminsions are 18X7.5 42mm offset 225 40 18 tires. Soi i know they will fit.
