So I've got 3 fronts and 1 rear wheel...smh

BlueM3Wagon · 11-12-2019, 04:31 PM

I bought a used set of wheels off Craigslist. I swear i looked them over but the wheel repair shop called me today and tells me i have 3 front wheels and 1 rear wheel. These are 351m 8x8.5 et 33 up front and 8x9 et 44 in the rear. I have 225/40 for the front and 255/35 for the rear. So same tires but what would happen if I try to roll with them with a front and rear in the back? They're winter tires and wheels. And I have to add spacers to the front and rear anyways not sure if I can balance them that way. Just not sure if I need to shell out the cash for another rear wheel and pay for a 5th paint job or just say fuck it and use it as is?

Call up places like Santa Ana wheels from CA that can ship you one good OE wheel for rear. You can sell them the good front extra or keep it in cast of curb and holes damage

They don't have that wheel in stock. If anyone sees one rear floating around please let me know!
