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.

 

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.
