I was wondering if these wheels would fit on my 2001 tib. Would they rub or is the lug spacing wrong (i am not sure of the spacing, i am trying to find that out from the owner.). Any help would be great. I have less then 4 hours to decide.

235?! not a chance man. the widest you could possibly go is 215, and thats as long as you don't do any suspension upgrades.

235 is just a liltoo wide for our cars. 205 is the favorite, and 215 is an option. anything else would be a mistake

as far as the wheels...they should have a bolt patter to fit our cars. i have motegis, and they have a 114.3 bolt pattern.

find a new tire size, mang

Well the first post was about a ebay bid. My friend has the RT5 16" chrome, so i would go with the MR7's.
