Default MB Motoring Wheels Fitting Guide

Hey Guys,

What do you guys think about these wheels?



MB Wheels

I'm looking to get these since they look awsome.

Fronts: 17X7 5-114.3 43GM
205/50/17 or 215/45/17

Rears: 17X8 5-114.3 42GM
235/40/17 or 245/40/17

I know that these offset are not even close to stock, but do you think I have a slight chance of fitting these?

Thanks!
Nick

205-50 and 235-45 should fit. Good snow tire wheels IMO.

Darker wheels look good on Sebring, but you probably already know that.

Thanks Aggie!

I just thought the price of these wheels were affordable so I'm planning to buy these!

I guess it won't rub at all right?

With an 8" wide wheel on the rear and a 42 offset, you're dangerously close to a problem. It'll depend on what tire you choose and if you are lowered or not.

They fit just fine. My friend has them on his ap2 with an eibach drop and no rubbing issues. He's running yoko es 100 with a 205/45/17 in the front and a 235/40/17 in the rear.

Can you get us some pics? I'd like to see the car sighting down the side of the car to see how the offset looks.

^agree with riceburner, they look great. Ill get smracer to post some pics.

Nevermind heres his old post, at first he thought the front was rubbing, but it ended up being something different. So he is lowered on Eibach's with no issues.
