ok so i came up with some $$$ and want rims for my white 08 lancer but i cant decide...here's my preference 18s, no black, love yellow, mesh, fat lip, cheap. ive been looking about i cant find what im looking for. all i see, and everybody has them, black! looks good on certain color. few other questions, if no can help me pick rims.

stick with 18 or go with 17 to save money on tires?
1) whats the bolt size, offset, etc?
2) if i go with 17s and larger tires will it bring the road noise down? if i stick with 18 with bigger tires would that help?
3) price difference between 17 and 18 tires

appreciation in advance

 

Not sure if it's the right lug pattern, but I'd love to see these on your white Lancer... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/WEDSS...QQcmdZViewItem

 

^^link not working

 

Fixed! Really love the bronze and blue contrast...

 

the blue looks nice, im thinking more gold then bronze

 

since you have white lancer...i'll say go with the black rims with chrome lips ur gts is nice:cheers:black and white is a good combination. but its up to you though.

 

these look so good but i dont think they're the right bolt pattern

 

i think gts has 5 lugz...from the looks of it...those rims has only 4?not sure though. ill check sum websites, to c how many bolts can fit on urs.

 

the rims above have 5 lug....

 

Cheap throws me off. haha. If it were me I would go for some volk le28's in gold. those would be perfect.

 

5 lug....5x114.3 bolt pattern stock wheel offset is +46. i would go with 17s for more tire i can't wait to pick up some rotas.

 

can someone explain offset for me? is it the clearance for the breaks or inside wheel wells?

 

17's - for ride quality and greater tire availability.

if i go with 17s im afraid it wont fill in the gap around

 

go with 18s you can go wrong there.I have 17s on my 02 lancer and i wish i went with 18's to fill my wheel wells
