Hey guys,

I really want to learn about the tires and the rims. my 2005 civic has the stock rims n cheap tires. just wanna know what sizes rims and tires i can fit in my car. I saw this ad for rims 17"x7 rims and bolt pattern is 10x110/114.3. . now i have no clue what dat means at all. If anyone could teach me a bit. thnx!

 

17" = Diamter
7" = Width

10x100 means it has 10 lugnuts 1 every 100mm (which is odd... wtf are these rims for a semi?) should have 4-5 max. 4 for a 01-05 civic (non ep3)

 

i just saw it from an ad. this is what it says. this is the add.

Four Brand new, in the box, 17"x7, Black polished, with chrome lip rims. Bolt pattern is 10x110/114.3.

Should i ask the seller for any other info? like regarding the bold pattern?

 

i dont know? i dont care if you do or dont..

you need 4x100

10x100/114.3 means there's two bolt patterns on the wheel. 5x114.3 and 5x100. Neither of which are the bolt pattern you're looking for.

would make sense if they put 5x100/114.3 but i see the 10 now. , i didnt think about that. im use to wheels with the exact amount of holes you needed.

 

ok cool thnx! now i know about the bolt pattern. anything else i need to know? what about width? what do i need to know about that?

You won't be able to fit anything wider than 8 inches, with a +42 offset, without extensive fender work.

Ideally, you'd want to have something in the 16x7, 17x7 range, with an offset between +38 and +45.

 

Whats the offset mean?

 

Here you go bud.
