If they are for Audi's or VW's they are 5x112, and won't fit our Galants.

Offset needs to be around +40, the most width you can do w/o alot of modification is 8.5". I have 19"x8.5" wheels all around. I had to shave the inner lip off of my rear fenders in order not to scrape. 20" wheels are the tallest you can fit w/o looking ridiculous and having to raise your car. A Member named Racesnos has 20"x7.5" on his, and they look good with his drop. For 19"s you have to run a 35 series sidewall height. 20"s you would have to run a 25 series in order to keep factory specs on overall wheel and tire height. Which will keep your gas mileage better, and keep your odometer accurate.

Thats more than enough info there, thats ya one freebie from me bcz this topic is all over the boards. So Merry Christmas! Lol! Just keep using that search button...

Choose a wheel with a width under 8 inches wide and an offset of +40 and above.
Wheel pattern of 5x114.3

My recommendation would be any wheel less than 18", get a width of x7 or x7.5 with an offset of +40, +42, or +45. This width and offset will provide minimal fender well rubbing if none at all and you won't necessarily need to have your fenders rolled (Click here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_irPKDRxufc)
