bunny you guys. Those are my wheels. Buy them and die.

In other news, one of them is bent, one is scratched, and he's missing the centre caps. These are 17 lb wheels though...

Would those even fit Alero's? The lug pattern looks small to me. Looks like 5x100 to me.

to clarify for everybody

17" Anthracite colored Flix Lex Wheels (Advan Model 5 knockoffs)

5x114.3 -- 40 offset -- 7 inches wide

Comes with lugs of course. One wheel has very very minor bend in it that really isn't noticable. Another wheel has scratch on one of the spokes where i hit a curb (doh!) :sad:

Tires -- 215 x 40 x 17 Bridgestone Potenza RE750's

Only 1,000 miles on these tires..paid 95 a tire brand new.

5x114.3 will fit but itll be a tight fit

i have 5X114.3.. it's not a tight fit.

actually i believe 5X115 will fit (tight)

he wants 150 for just the rims or 500 with tires.

5X115 is the exact fit for the alero...and even 8 inches wide fits, that's what i got...18X8's...

you're right, but also depends on the offset and tires...

Hmm....

Nice wheels. Scratch thing could easily be fixed with some paint.

Well, I guess you'll be seeing 2 Alero's with these wheels now!

They will be mine this Friday.

Finding hub rings for these things is turning into a pain in the ass. It would be easy if I could find a website for the maker of the wheels.

Know anyone that works @ a machine shop? That would be my back-up plan........

I'll find some tommorow, but right now I'm taking a dremel to my tweeter panel.

Took all night, but I figured out what sized rings I needed......
