not sure what wheels i want to go with. Will need a low offset. Tryed a set of 17x8’s 34offset on the front and they fit with a 40mm spacer, 35mm wont fit. The rear isnt to much of a problem. I can fit them with a 25mm spacer but the 30mm make it perfectly flush ---

The rims that are in the 3rd picture look IDENTICAL to the rims I had on my Acura before I sold it. [http://www.doozersden.com/CARPICS/side1.jpg](http://www.doozersden.com/CARPICS/side1.jpg) I notice that the rims on your car were missing their center caps … I had the same problem with mine. I’ll never buy rims with separate center caps again. ---
