Wheel experts please have a look!

Just got home from buying some used wheels cheap!
They have Voxx center caps, can anyone tell if they are Voxx wheels?
The guy told me there 17x7 how can i tell what offset they are, hoping someone can decipher the numbers on the back!

Your offset is the number next too ET , which looks like 41.
Rims say 17x7

Thanks!!

Edit = I went and looked, now that I konw what I was looking at, and its ET 42, so from what i read on this site ( 40 to 45 offset) im golden right???

Should I go get hubcentric rings???

[Marthos]

One more question, the auto parts store sold me lugs with a spline tool made by Dorman, im not sure i like them, anyone else stuck using these style?

There is no hex nut, if the tool is lost or broken im paying 30 bucks for lugs and another tool

rings would be recommended...

I would also recomend that you get on solid ground when using the jack.

Holy crap no kidding. Throw that scissors jack away too. I had a jetta almost fall on me, on flat concrete, using one of those pieces of shit. You're lucky you aren't digging your axle out of the lawn right now.

Rims look nice, the rear gap has got to go though.(unless that pic is before you moved it after letting it off the jack)

[Marthos]

Rear gap is enlarged cause we backed the car away from my junker for pics, car is leaning to the right some cause of uneven ground. But still, I am thinking about the TRD springs now, but may have gone to big for them.

You can see where the test fit was done, that is solid ground! :wink:

And like i said, my floor jack gave up the ghost, had to make sure that one wheel fit.

I dont ever get under a car without ramps, or a floor jack and stands.
Dont be afraid of the tiny jack, before the wheel came off I shook the HELL outta it, it was going nowhere!

[ChinoCharles]

I have those lugs. They work fine. The holes on my Konigs are small and using any other lug results in my scraping the finish, which is FTL. Just be ready to buy a new set every year or so. The insides rust pretty quickly.
