i recently bought authentic near mint condition volk te37's, 17"by 7.5" with 40mm offset. they were wrapped in toyo proxies 205/40/17. i bought them as a steal for $1000 only (ebay)!! but there is a catch. their lug pattern is 4 x 108, the guy said they came off a ford focus, and i have a fourth gen meaning mine is a 4 x 114.3.

is there ANY way at all to get these rims mounted to my car??? i was thinking of starting with some adapters but i think those are not safe. i bought them so cheap i think this is too much of a steal to just let go! any help is greatly appreciated!

No. If they're a steal sell them for more than you got them for and buy a set that fits with the profit.

Did the blue oval do something wrong in this instance?

You could buy a hammer and beat the studs into position.

Buy all 4 ford focus hub assemblies and install those onto the prelude.

does it say rays engineering on the inside of the wheel? if not then you purchased some rota wheels. I didn't know they made that bolt pattern..

its pretty authentic. it has the stickers inside and all the forged made in japan stuff. its off a euro car. im really thinking of selling it but the rims are starting to get to me. buying ford focus hub assemblies also seem right. its a lot of work but it will fit. another guy also said to redrill the rims but i dont want to do that.

madcatz

you dont re-drill rims, you would get hubs and redrill them

so some possible ways to get this project done: re drill the hubs to 4 x 108? buy some adapters but im gonna have problems with the offset since they are already +40. or buy some ford focus hub assemblies and replace the one i have.

im kind of new to car tuning and i know few things when it comes to wheels and tires.
