Found these wheels on craigslist near me. They are 18" and look like they might fit but I cant find any info. on the interwebz about them. Anybody help a brother out?
Quote from ad:4- 235 x 50R- 18 LM-60 Blizzak snow tires mounted on Kuro 18X7.5 rims, 5X100 or 5X114.3 bolt pattern and TPMS. Used one season, less than 1000 miles. Like new condition!! Price includes 4 tire rack storable/carrying totes with wheel felts.

Found out they are 40mm offset and 5.9" backspacing. I'm going to check them out today after work to see if they fit. The only thing that sucks is that the height of the tire is almost 3/4" shorter so my speedo will be off by about 3-6 mph.

I think a tune can adjust for that difference?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Ended up buying them.  They were in mint condition! $800. Came with tire protection bags and felt wheel pads. The tires had less than 1000 miles on them.
I'm happy

I replace my Michelin mxv4 with 255/45/20 general GMAX.
So far so good.  They got pretty good reviews in the snow.

Decided to put them on the car tonight. Man what a gap between the tire and the fender.  It's like 5". Almost want to get the H&Rs on there now instead of waiting for summer. 
The speedo is off by about 5-6mph I think.  I need to get that corrected.  I thought I could with my X3, no? Do I need to ask Torrie?

So now that my TPMS light is on,  how do I fix that? They have the sensors in them.  How do I get the computer to recognize them? Thx
