Another wheel question from another newb. Lil help?
 

So I found some wheels in a style I like on the ol' Craigslist, and I'm wondering if they'd fit my Fit – and also how hard finding tires would be.

Here's the size:
17 x 7.5 4x108



The wheels are OEM Ford Racing wheels in white. They're cheap, and I think they'd look mean on my Vortex Blue 2012.



Explain like I'm 5 years old how this will or will not work? And if it will, where would you recommend I shop for tires?


Thanks so much!

Am sure the more learned will chime in but its gotta be 4x100 at the very minimum.:D:D:D

Bolt pattern is wrong on the wheels!

You need a bolt pattern of 4x100 to fit the spacing between the studs on the car.

With a 4x108 bolt pattern on your wheels, you won't be able to fit them on the car.

Bolt pattern info (4x100):
-4: 4 bolts on wheel (4 studs on car);
-100: spacing between the studs (I think it is the diameter of the circle that would fit on all studs)

I typed too much! Just look here as they have the right words : http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/....jsp?techid=92

Necroing a 4 year old thread?

sweet thread revival!!!

You'd be buying the second half (the worst half) of a car's life for more than half the price of a new car.

It used to be that used cars were a bargain because a car lost a third of its value the day it was driven off the lot. Now it seems like the opposite- used cars are more expensive than new cars relative to the remaining life.

And given how bad dealers are at the pre-delivery inspection on new cars I wouldn't have a lot of faith that their 100 point check was any more than a guy with a pencil seeing wheels and checking the box that the brakes work.
