they might, its still shit offset man you are better off just gettin wheels with the right (or closer) offset instead of screwing around with spacers and all that

well if they are free just get em anyway and see. if not you can always off them later and maybe get a few bucks for em.

I've been told that it's the non A.B.S model rims that bolt up. Talk to a tyre guru about what offset they are to decide whether they're worth fitting. But as the other dude said, if they're free then just buy and fit them. Then you can sell them whenever you want.

Nope they wont fit, unless you get some really big sapcers for the front as 14` rims will hit the shockies. If they were lancer offset 17` rims then yes, as these have enough room to clear the shockies. i assume all the 17` rims in the gallery are lancer offset, which is 38mm? as when i was looking for rims the only ones for gemini offset are custom simmons/ROH 3 peice-->EXPENSIVE!, and also speedy hyperfangs which they will custom make for gemini offset but are also faily expensive. SO in short 14`---> not unless u use big (illegal, void insurance) spacers, or get 17` rims.
