      He is talking about wheels made for front wheel drive cars. Make sure they have the same bolt pattern.

        There is a difference?? Please explane.

        Edit: I know that the bolt pattern needs to be the same. Rims are not selected by FRW or RWD.

          The difference between FWD & RWD rims is the offset, not the bolt pattern.

            On a 17" SS wheel the backspacing is 7" and offset is 2" so try to come close to that. Remeber that is on a 9" wide wheel too.
