Default Re: Would these wheels work on a Crossfire for snow tires?

I followed the advice of forum members and bought the snow tire sizes recommended but now I'm having a heck of a time finding rims...


I believe MB SLK 17 inch rims would work but I can't seem to find any. They don't have to mint and I don't mind a little curb rash...

so if anyone has any ideas on where to find MB SLK 17 inch rims that would be great.

From what I remember is it 17 inch 5 X 112 bolt pattern and approximately 35 mm offset?

Any help would be appreciated..

Thanks in advance.

JB

I could but I didn't want to spend big bucks...


Any idea what tirerack would charge for those rims?

Approximately anyway...

I thought used might be a better way to go but I don't know where to look?

I've heard the TSX site had them inexpensive as closeouts?

Thanks for the laughs ...


I'm trying to help out my moms 77 year old boyfriend who bought the crossfire as his first 2 seater sports cars based off of my suggestion that its an awesome car.

He's a cool guy and I'm just trying to help him out with winter issues from last year.

I have picked up his tires off of ebay and now I just need the wheels...

Like I said...thanks for the laughs.
