Retarded question, dont make fun.....wheels

16x7 with a 6 on 4.5" (also called 114.something mm) and i am 99% sure its 4" BS

Thanks a load dude. Im not totaly car illiterate. But untill i got my X the extent of my car work experience was buying tires at sams club, changing my oil, belts and exhaust. Maybe the occasional water pump and spark plugs. So it helps to get the education on stuff here. Thanks.

Stock wheels on any of our X's would be a rim sized 16 inches

Nope - the SE model has 17 inch rims.

This has to be one of the biggest headaches.........looking for [email protected]#ckinf wheels.

Good luck. There's been a few people to try out new wheels and several have reported that the inside of the rim contacts the brake calipers. It's pretty much going to have to be a trial to see if something fits. If you find something that works, let us know.

Well on the wheels I was swapping them around a bit and I weighed what I have. The predators with the bfg 285 75s 82 lbs, The Stock rims 5 spoke is 63 lbs and the steel spare stock 75 lbs. You know I am thinking this can be the difference in MPG we have. Some have steel wheels and some have a lighter material. I notice a Big jump in MPG with stock tires and rims. Also notice the stock rims reach out and grab rocks and get scraped. The Predators not nearly as much. MC

Don't your BFGs have a rim protector?

He's talking about the spokes of the stock. Mine are all scratched up.

So would a wheel sized 16 by8 work out ok?

Yes, but no wider.

Then id have to do the melt the inside of the fender thing correct? Is it our bolt pattern and offset fromthe breaks the big thing we have problems with getting new wheels?

I would just look for a set of stock wheels that someone is selling.
