Hey everyone,

I put on 17" BSA alloy wheels on my GTP sedan for the winter. Check out the pics and let me know what you think.

The center bolt sticks out too far on the front wheels to put the plastic cap on. Any thoughts?

Whats the offset of rim, seems like it would be wrong!

That looks horrible, but if its just for the winter I wouldn't get too bent out of shape about it.

Offset is same as 18" high polish chromer.
BSA 264 5x110 17x7 40 offset.

And yes, it's only for winter, but I'd rather not rust the bolt.

too late,

unless you're worried about looks, just smear some grease on the threads every couple of weeks

Nothin a little WD40 can't cure.

call the rim company and see if they have a larger hub cover for this wheel. They should have one.
