Are they 8.5 fronts with 10.0 rears? Offsets around ET15 or so?

:apl:
 
Nice score - congrats!

The wheels are a bolt-on. They should use 245-45-17 front and 275-40-17 rear. Make sure to inspect the hubs VERY closely for any signs of hairline cracks near the lug bolt holes. And check them all periodically, i.e. at oil change time or something.

crack free fronts?

Careful w/ the 275's...a LOT of tires these days are Really square and will rub....! Been fighting with with that on some 126's of late!

Ordered a set of Conti DW in exactly those sizes for exactly those wheels just this morning. Unfortunately Michelin does not make a Pilot Super Sport wider than 245 in 17" :(
