Hey guys i got some wheel this weekend but i got them for the the size because i will be painting my car soon. Now i will know what i need to modify in order to fit properly and by the way i don't really know much about wheels.
my wheels are 20x8 1/2 for front and 20x10 in the rear
the car is lowered with tenabes and KYB's

first question is what tire size should i go for front and rear??
what is the lug nut size that the wheel studs take??
how do i find the offset and how do i know i i need spacers??
thanks for your help

Do 225/35/20 in front and 255/35/20 in the rear
Look for ones that fit 12x1.5 thread
And as for spacers, measure your wheel gap and convert inches to mm

dude, you got them for free, spend the money, get them refinished... full face wheels look slick on the GS. At least give it a try, you can always sell the wheels for what you invested in them.

Like I said man, work on the specs I gave you and you should be fine. Coming from someone who hadn't done wheels and coilovers yet.

I agree w rapollon, BTW vipman that's the exact same size tires I'm running. Go to my thread I posted not too long ago I'm the same wheel size with a +25 offset all around.

Nice man, I'm gonna be running a set of XXR's by next month or the month after before my kid's BDay. But the set's not going on till my Megans come in

Thanks guys ill just have to shop around for powder coat and polish to make them look new. maybe by the time i get them done i will have painted my car and it will look better with fresh paint and clean wheels. i just hope that the tires don't take all my money

I got all four tires out here in Miami for $400, Nankang NSII's are great for that strrrrretch!

Barbermike where in mia did you get them , im going 20's soon.

vipman806

Nice bro, what kind?

freshmoney

....... is what im looking at now 20 x 8.5 / 20 x 10...... gonna get rid of the two tone black and silver, and go all black(maybe Dark Mountain Cherry "aka BLACK CHERRY" and rims to match). Alot of all black 1st gens in florida, makes you wanna try something else......

Finally decided to keep the 1st gen and not get a 2nd gen or 3rd gen(YET).Too many 2nd and 3rd gen Gs's in south florida.

Nice, are you slamming your 1GS?
