Vw 5x100 wheels?

Post by **Legacy777** » Tue Jan 10, 2012 11:35 pm

Honestly, I don't think the centering ring is a big deal. The wheels on my Legacy are lug-centric and I've been using them since 1997 without any issues. As Vikash mentioned, you just take a little bit of time to get the lugs started and centered properly....it's no big deal.

The wheel offset is a greater issue IMO.

the lugs are tapered. you would be very hard pressed to actually get the wheel on there off centered.

additionally, 225/45 is the right overall diameter. 215/40 is quite a bit shorter.

215/40 is a hard tire to find used.

I got those tires at around 85%. They're mounted on wheels though. So you should buy the whole shebang, and sell your wheels to euroshark guy. lol

^so you are the guy selling the rs wheels and the rays. i was thinking about buying your rays off of you.

Those are the 2 sets I like. Haha

WRX wheels are dirt cheap, at least the common split 5 spoke ones, I had mine up for a while for $100 and no one wanted them.

Only wheels I like out of that set are the RS...But I'm picky.
