The seat sounds good, but what mounting hardware is required for the car?

[turboawd]

What is the offset on those rims?

[jodz]

Shaman-----The seat mounts... any way you can get it to mount. They don't make specific mounting hardware for each car, so you have to use some imagination. We just used some various pieces of metal and bolts and mounted it to the stock seat slider. Bit of a pain, but worked for me. You could easily fab up something more permanent.


TurboAWD-----The rims are a 5 bolt 4.5" pattern. I'm not sure of the offset, I'd have to measure it. They are factory rims, and they don't give the offset in the owners manual.

17x9? weight?

[jodz]

they're 17x8, no clue on the weight..... it's a factory rim, I don't have those specs

[turboawd]

hmm... I didn't think a 255s would fit on an 8" rim but the pic shows the tire sidewall quite perpindicular. Did the shop have any problems installing the rubber on the rims?

[jodz]

They should probably be on 8.5" or 9" rims, but these are just big enough. They were a little tough getting them on just because the sidewalls are very stiff with these tires.
