I just wanted to see opinions, good or bad. I am in the middle of transaction with the guy. I have been wanting OEM 17 wheels, seems like i found good candidate. Once i close the deal or not close the deal i can reveal all details of transactions. Its pretty much a done deal, but i dont wnat to jinx it.
Opinions... very similar to our wheels. thats waht i like...

They look nice, BUT - are they 5x100 bolt pattern?
edit: Btw, i'm guessing they're not 5x100 - thus, don't work with our cars.

They look like the OEM 17" rims that come with the Matrix M-Theory. If they are, then they are 5x100. Offset I think should be around +45 if I remember correctly.
see if the guy ur getting it from knows what car its from.. and then do research on the bolt pattern.. im guessing there 5x114

Thats what i found out, but i am hoping i did my research right. Since there are two of us supporting this theory, it makes me feel better....

If its matrix its 5x100 fo sho!
They look pretty cool! Simple and nice and ofcourse OEM!
Face your fears, Live your dreams!!!
If they're 5x100, go for them.

confirmed. Now hoping my deal does not fall off.
"....The M-Theory adds several sporty exterior enhancements including unique Speedway Blue paint with matching rear deck lid spoiler, a large chrome exhaust tip and M-Theory badges. M-theory also features 17-inch Caldina alloy wheels with P215/50R17 tires....."

im out of the US so i have not been in the forums.
I bought these rims for 152 dls. Yes, great deal. I have not received them yet. They will be shipped this week.
they are from a 2007 matrix. They came off a package called M-theory. They are the same wheels used in the toyota caldina.

once i get the rims on my bolts, ill take pics if they fit.
I am grateful of the countless internet hours i spent to get these rims. I always wanted oem to keep the stock look. yes call me crazy. but i will keep my vert as much OEM as possible. The next 6gc i buy, will be swapped and all that crap. but right now i dont have the money. keep you guys posted.

Just hope they're not +45mm offset or something like that... because it'll be tucked pretty good.

oh your from hawaii. haha maybe your cars come with different rims then.
these are the rims that come with our solaras
heres the story.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...253533&rd=1item not described appropiately, no bolt pattern was mentioned and many people doubted they were matrix. My highest bid was 200.
I have them in today, 17x7 offset 45, so i will be using 6 mm spacers,
oem fits like a charm. Only one wheel has a little damage, that can be repaired easily. 3 rims for 152 its a steal.



so if you stumble accross one of these, THEY ARE

looking good m8
Dezent - Type A alloys look like they could qualify as oem type, not 100% the same but they are similar.
