    Question will this rims fit?

    i got some used wheels to help me with the nose dip my cae does since the struts are shot. im hoping with bigger wheels it will cure the dipping a bit. the wheels are 17x7 offset its +48 "whoa i know!!" or should i stay with the stock ones.

    Get new struts to cure shot struts, not new wheels.

    The wheels in pics are 4x100. Your car needs a 4x114.3 bolt circle. +48 will rub on strut housings, besides looking goofy. Larger diameter wheels are usually heavier, which will make your strut issue worse. Hope you didnt already buy them. Oh well, I see you have.

    If you read any of the threads about rim fitment, you would have known very quickly that a +48 offset is no where close to fitting...
