same as 3rd gen wheels then?

this seems weird because i just got a set of 17x8 wheels that were on a 3rd gen. i put these wheels on my brother's car and it looks like they will need a small spacer to fit properly. (maybe 5mm)

this is why i think 2nd gens have a different offset.

maybe these wheels were on the fd with spacers. who knows?

these wheels are butt ugly and the chrome is 50% chipped off, but they're still 17x8 so i figured that i could find a use for them. i got them for $20 with nitto 450 tires. (or some kind of nitto tire)

2 tires are shot and two have maybe 5k miles left on them...

these are so ugly- i have to post some pics soon...

H&R makes some good wheel spacers. www.hrsprings.com/



5mm is probably the way to go.
