Would you put these on your car?

I want FR500's but these are kinda cool as well... What do you think?

 

[Lownslowlsc]

Not my style.

38mm offset on 8" wheel will look poopy. Too far inward.

FR500's will look SOOOO much better.

 

[NoLimit95]

Over two years of silver wheels on my car was enough for me. They do look fairly nice and not expensive but like caprice said, not really my style either. Car color is going to make a difference with those too.

 

[Markviiiedrea]

I have a GF code (dark red), our offset is 31mm right?

 

[chris2523]

not my thing. +1 on probably needing spacers. +1 on holding out for fr500s.

pretty sure factory offset is +36mm. but of course, the rules can change depending on your wheel width. and there is a little wiggle room.

Those in black on a black Gen II with a custom center cap wouldn't look too bad.

 

[UltimateSVT]

Way too many spokes IMO.

 

[Sapperfire]

Way too many spokes IMO.

That's why I want to sell mine

My Octi's are 36mm

I've got the octi's on there now and have had mustang hubs taking up space in my garage for the last couple of years. These are just unique and would be direct bolt on's for now.

 

[Jacksun]

There a step too far in one direction. I think black or black Chrome fr500s

No they are not, unless you added some material to the hub mating surface

All OEM Mark VIII wheels are spec'ed 16x7 +39 Offset.


Offset means nothing if you're not having the width of the wheel factored in.

If you want to have wheels somewhat flush with the fender lines, you want approx 3.6" of actual front spacing or less.

Maximum back spacing needs to be around 6.4" for a 17", and 6.5" for an 18" and larger.

For any 9" wide (actual measured 10" wide) that works out to 36mm offset.

Possibly if I could cover up the Volvo name with a Lincoln symbol.

You are correct. I had my front ones off the other night to wipe off the front air bags and noticed the offset stamped on the back but it was upside down but I only glanced at it. Just thought I saw 36mm but they are 39mm. Sorry for the 3mm confusion.

Just for what that guy wants I would stay away.

He bought them for 150 with tires and now are reselling them for that.

I was looking at them when up for sale the first time for my LS
