These are for winter ONLY.

I want to make sure the bolt pattern and offsets are ok before I buy them.

I have these exact rims for my winters...and I am actually looking for one......as someone vandalized one of my rims and basically detroyed it....apparently they are on backorder for 16weeks......so I had to settle for one steel rim and some patience.

They are 100% mint condition.
