Default help..wheel clueless..

I'm dropped on Hotchkis springs (1.7 f...1.9 rear)

This is the size of the rims i'm looking at...

Size: 18"x7.5"

Bolt Pattern: 5x100 or 5x114.3

Off Set: +42mm

Finish: Gloss Black with Polished Lip

Center Bore: 73.1mm


Curious about rubbing issues or anything. Truely clueless about this stuff. I wasn't planning on getting rims anytime soon for my car...but an opportunity presented itself.

If you give me a search icon I'll eat you.


Thanks guys

I've seen that already but they have no listing for hotchkis which is a tad lower than TRD and different kind of spring rate. And i've seen plenty of people here on scionlife with hotchkis and 18's

The "search" feature does have its quirts. It sounds like you should be ok. The width (7.5) of the rim is fine. The offset is fine as well. (Stock 17s = +45 offset.) Just make sure to get the 5x100 bolt pattern!

Just because you did it.... its quirks, not quirts
