They are a great looking wheels, and you can't beat the price! The only reason you don't see them on thirdgens is the added cost of the adapters which pretty much kill the cheap nice wheels thing. Spacers are getting cheaper as more companies are making them however. I think there was a member on the board who had them, I just can't think of his name. It was a 92' primered RS IIRC...


Ahh! Stiers or something like that comes to mind...HTH!

affectionately called "salad shooters" I'd run them on my SC, my mothers 94 has 'em, I think they'd look better on mine though.

Slap some spacers and some kumho's on there and rip things up....

Its not because of the bolt pattern, it has to do with the offset. 4th gens are wider in the wheel hub area than 3rd's are. Without the spacers, the 4th gen wheel would be hitting the inside of your wheel wells or your brakes...

The spacers just push the wheel out a little bit to clear everything.
