Hey guys! I just got my Rota shipment today and there is a set of 16X7 Slipstreams in there. They are for an Eclipse, but 5X114 with an offset of 40... can I put these on my Type R?

Thanks in advance!

what happened? how do you know they are for an eclipse?

 

5x114 with an offset of +40 is exactly what I'm using on my R.
Actually I think it's like 114.3 if you wanna get technical

 

I work at a DSM/WRX shop. We ordered the 16's for an Eclipse, turns out the guy bailed and now they are just sitting here. They are soooo cheap, so I wanted to scoop them up. I just need to know if they will fit or not.

 

if they are 5x114.3mm, then it'll fit w/ +40 offset.

<u>But</u>, that is not an ideal offset for 7" width rims. +43mm or +45mm would be better for street use. (Less neg camber and aesthetically better looking).

 

Thank you

 

i would expect it to work.. worst case, just slap one on real quick(unmounted even) to easily check the clearances and how the wheel sits.. should be fine though..

Edit: wow.. like 4 responses in the minute it to type mine in.. lol..
