hey all,new here. ok, if i want them, i've got a good deal on 17" MSR gunmetal rims and pirelli tires. style number is 105...anyone know if they'll fit on my 04 vibe? i know in terms of tires, i should go with 225/45s, but i'm wondering if there's any thing different about bolts or something...does that make sense?thanx in advance

Welcome!!! It's all about the bolt pattern. I can't remember exactly what the pattern is, I want to say 5 X 100. Let me make sure.....Edit>>> Yep 5X100mm

[Mr. Poopypants]

That, I don't know. I'm sure someone will be able to shout out an answer.

As long as it has the 5x100 that's all you need to worry about.

Oh man, I lived in Japan for about 6 years courtesy of the USAF. Nothing could be closer to the truth. We used to go around just looking for signs like the stuff they have on that site.

dude, i know! i was there in 2003. hung out in harajuku with all those cats. went into a store that was kind of like the gap...but it was called 'freak store.' and right across the street was another gap-like store called 'eat ****'. what was also wild were the tiny freakin cars. saw one that looked like a range rover discovery that someone left out in the rainanyways, too bad the voltz didn't really catch ongood vibelation

hey guys, thanx for the help with the wheels/tires. got my 105s and pirelli p6s mounted over the weekend. looks sweet. get really minor steering wheel vibration around 65-70mph, but i guess that;s what i guess for putting used tires on. other than that, everything's cool
