Thread: I found some wheels and dont know if they will fit

i found some 18 inch wheels not far from my house and i dont know if they will fit my gp they came off of a 99 mitsubishi elipse the tires are a 245/40/18 anyone know what the bolt pattern is on a eclipse

114.3 will work. eclipse wheels should fit as long as the bore isn't way out. thought bio would get to this first. haha.

the guy wants 600 for them is that too steep or should i go with some gxp rims

Do you have a link to the item for sale? Kinda hard for us to tell if we can't see what kind of wheels and what shape. As stated in earlier threads about wheels/tires GXP have two different rim sizes to compensate for handling. You would have to get four of the same size or 4 gxp fronts for that to work.

i dont have a link its from a guy that had them sitting out at a shop i know the brand is epic wheels i will try to find them online and get a link posted

Ok. Sounds good.

Epic Precision Alloy Wheels n Rims this is a link to those wheels they are the palm beach

Epic Wheels - Palm Beach (Chrome) at Htawheels.com this one shows them alot better

Look nice to me. I'd say try to see if they will take a bit less though. But first, what make/model are the tires? How much tread do they have left? If the tires are good brand in really good shape they might be able to get 600 for them.

If they are a crappy tire, I wouldn't buy them if they were 400. That's just me though. Just don't want to have to buy brand new tires if you can get both that are good from another car.

the tires are falken 452 with about 50-60% tread lefthttp://www.wheelsnext.com/images/wheels/large/FALKEN_FK452_TREAD.jpg

Looks good to me. Those tires are over $180 each, so brand new just the tires would have been more than $600. Factor in that they have about 1/2 tread left and add price of wheels. I would ask them if they would take $500 or so. If not i'd look for some other wheels from pretty much anything that is 5x114.3 and isn't off for bore.

thanks guys i will try them on first and see if they will fit.the guy has put them out for sale everyday since the begining of march so i think he will take less for them.

the guy seems to know nothing about these wheels he said that he is selling them for his son and that his son is in iraq so when he calls he will ask him what his bottom dollar is and get back with me
