Can anyone tell me what these wheels are?

Also the width and offset maybe? For sale cheap here and I would paint them white.

Thanks

Well the guy does not know the offset. Anyone hazard a guess? I sure don't want to buy them and find out they rub.

Guy wants $200.

Thanks

Can the seller at least tell you the brand that is on the center cap? I can't quite make it out.

Are the dimensions not stamped on the inside of the wheel? Surely they must be.

there is no way we would know the offset from a pic. What car did they come off of? what is the size of the wheel?

I just went and looked at them. One has a bit of a bend/chip on the lip. Not bad at all. One other some rash but again the edge of lip is narrow so not noticeable. It is at a garage so he is going to get me a price on some tires. For $200 not bad. They were on a Toyota then he had them on his Mini for awhile.

The size and 100x4 stamped inside but no Offset numbers. He has no rub on his Mini.

I tried to look them up, but they must be a discontinued model. I think the Mini is also a car that requires a high offset wheel so maybe they will fit. I would test fit before mounting tires on them and make sure they are inside the wheel wells just in case.

Our +40's are just barely inside the wheel wells and still scrape in the rear with large dips in the road and that's after bending a body mount out of the way.

I have decided not to buy them. Just enough rash I would not be happy with. That plus over $700 for a set of Hankooks to put on them. Just too much.

I only have around 16M on my Fit and the tire wear is divided between the original and my snow tires. So it is difficult to justify not using the original wheels and tires. If I want a different look I could just get my Sport wheels powder coated white.

I must stop looking on Kijiji.

I found these. They are 16". 40 offset and 7.5 wide.

90% left on the tires. Wheels are Rotas.

He is asking $850.

Comments? Will they fit? Any rubbing?

It does include the tires as well.

Is 7.5 wide a bit too much? I am just an old fart who does not need the performance and handling.

Wild Bill... If you ever get around to getting a set of new wheels you will be happier with some that are 5 or 6 lbs lighter than the stock wheels and have no lower than 45 mm offset.... The reduced weight makes a big difference in the way the car steers, rides, accelerates , stops and extends the life of all of the components that also effects the stuff I listed......With your Swift springs less offset might create tire clearance problems with 205-50-16"s and sticking out further you wheel be having to wash your car... If you can match the color of the wheels to your car, it would look great but wouldn't you be almost invisible to other drivers up there for most of the year?

Ah yes lighter as you preach. Thanks for the info Wily. I am thinking these will be too wide.

Now this disappearing for 6 months of the year. My winter steelies are white and so far I have not lost it in the snow. Then again we have very little snow right now. Kinda scary.

Hers are the Rotas and tires. Looks like he is asking pretty much the cost new other less taxes, mounting etc. I am going to pass. I kinda still like my look on the stock wheels.
