ouch, I don't think that will fit. The rim size and offset are perfect, but those bolt patterns won't match the lugs on your car, unless you swapped for some Lancer ES parts (which uses 4x100).

So your saying that if I change out the lugs it would fit?
These rims I'm asking about are the OZ F1-Cup wich I have been wanting for a while and finally found them.I'm pretty sure if I go the local tire shop they can change out the lugs right?Should be just like replaceing a worn lug correct?

You'd need to replace the entire hub. Bolt pattern = # of bolts x diameter of the imaginary circle they create.

You're talking about wheels whose circles are too small for the OZ's hub.

Its not the lugs, put where they are placed, meaning the whole hub would have to be changed to that of the Lancer ES. I guess it could be done, but it will probably cost ya a decent amount of money.....

By the way, prefered offset for our cars is 40 mm, but 42 will be fine.

(Nice Andrew, ya beat me to it.....lol)

Plain and simple: 4X100 will not fit a OZ Rally

Thars all I need to hear...It's just that the OZ F1-Cup is the nicest looking rim that OZ racing makes in my opnion.Looks like I'm out of luck
