    I need your help

    I found a set of rims for a reasonable price and i think that they will fit my 2003 galant but I want to make sure before i pay for them they are a 5 lug rim 5-114 with a 215/45/r17 please help me. :)

    They will work if they are 5x114.3 bolt pattern but will be slightly smaller in diameter than stock. The best fit is actually 225/45 R17, but those are very close

    Please post questions relating to tires or wheels in the "Suspension, Wheels, Tires & Brakes" forum in the future.

    yea theres a whole post in suspension wheels tires and brakes that has all the correct tire sizes for any galant, but like he said 215 is small (i have 215/40/18) and i wish i had 225/40/18 for a bit more comfort

    as long as the offset it fine, you should be ok.

    a two tone or would you do a peralessence paint? because i saw a dodge durrango that was painted like that, it was really nice the way it changed in the sun

    ive also seen an eclispe that was red/orange/purple looked nice, something id look into for a show car
