Just bought some 17 x 7 (+42mm offset) RoJa wheels. Am I going to need anything else - hub rings, new lugs, etc... - to fit my MCS?



TIA

Matt

 

Make sure you use hubcentric rings and that your O.E. wheel bolts engage into the hub enough to safely keep the wheel on your ride. The O.E. ones should be long enough since they're used on alloys from the factory.

Other than that, great choice, the Roja's are nice wheels.

Great looking wheels BTW.

 

You'll want tires

nice wheels

 

What size wheel lugs as there seems to be 2 sizes: 12x1.50 or 12.1.25 bentely didn't mention sizes at all.

 

12x1.50, 37 mm legth is stock, you could go 50 mm

 

Thanks. Assuming the wheels don't come with the rings, where can I get a set? Are they specific to our cars or the wheel itself?

Man are we late nighters or what???

If you can't get a hold of the proper hubcentrics I can track them down for you, but any shop that sells American Racing wheels can (should) order them for you and they should'nt charge you anything for them. They simply slip into the hub of the wheel and you're good to go.

Ro-ja does not supply the spacers unfortunatly. Any good aftermarket tire shop should be able to set you up. I have access to a close out for the ro-ja lt 5's if anyone is interested. 17/7 42mm offsett 14.5 lbs. Have white , silver and bronze left. Normally sell at $ 340 per wheel I can have them delivered for $600 a set. PM me if interested.

Randy's right, most of the rings we get are packaged separately from the wheels. Find out the wheels' hub bore diameter and I'm sure someone on this site can get you the Mini's hub diameter, call a wheel/tire shop, give them both #'s and have them order you up a set.

That's the size you'll need.

 

while doing the same search for my new Motegi's, I was pointed to Discount Tire and they seem to carry alot of bits and pieces. Too bad Tire Rack has their no sale policy otherwise Alex would get our business.

 

Randy - PM sent.

Give Alex a PM. He might be able to sell you a set because he sold me a set of wheel locks and I didn't buy the wheels from TR. Of course, I did buy a set later..:smile:
