Dan From BC forged wheels went the extra mile and sourced factory wheels to ensure the hub and wheel pattern is perfect. We did however change the offsets and front-wheel width for more of an aggressive stance.

Nice... looks like they're proper directional wheels where they twist the right way on each side of the car.
