Hey all,

Im looking at these rims for sale and they have an offset 5x114.3 17x8.
Now, will this fit my 1990 EA Fairmont Ghia straight on?

Also, what is the offset on the EA Fairmont Ghias?

Thanks guys

17 x8 is the wheel size - 17" wheels with 8" width.
5 x114.3 is the stud pattern - 5 holes with 114.3 space between them.
You havn't given us the figure for the offset!!!
But that is teh right stud pattern to suit...

Weather they throw your speedo out will depend on what tyres are on them! You'll need something like 245/45r17 on them.
And as for them fitting, read my post above YOU HAVN"T GIVE US THE OFFSET OF THE WHEELS SO WE CANNOT TELL YOU IF THEY WILL FIT OR NOT! Based on the stud pattern you gave us the stud pattern is correct!
