lots of grand prix guys are running 5x114.3
all they say to do is run hubcentric rings.

it'* actually really hard to find a TRUE 5x115. i used to search ebay all day long and most items that say they are 5x115 are actually 5x4.5(5x114.3)

actually i'd guess most of the guys around here with aftermarket wheels are running 5x114.3s also

Why do you think there are so many 5x114.3 on Ebay? Because their trying
to get rid of them to buy 5x115. I have 18 5x115, and your right it
was never any 5x115 in 17" or 18" on Ebay. So I started to search
in different places. Here'* a couple......

I wouldn't put 114.3'* on my car if you gave them to me. The risk is too great. If you expect to do any kind of performance driving, you better make sure things are RIGHT where the rubber meets the road.

The Alien made the right choice. And the new rims look better
