I just wanted to see opinions, good or bad. I am in the middle of transaction with the guy. I have been wanting OEM 17 wheels, seems like i found good candidate. Once i close the deal or not close the deal i can reveal all details of transactions. Its pretty much a done deal, but i dont wnat to jinx it.
Opinions... very similar to our wheels. thats waht i like...

They look nice, BUT - are they 5x100 bolt pattern?
edit: Btw, i'm guessing they're not 5x100 - thus, don't work with our cars. This post has been edited by snapshotgt: Dec 18, 2007 - 10:18 PM -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ

They look like the OEM 17" rims that come with the Matrix M-Theory. If they are, then they are 5x100. Offset I think should be around +45 if I remember correctly.

Since there are two of us supporting this theory, it makes me feel better....

If they're 5x100, go for them.

"....The M-Theory adds several sporty exterior enhancements including unique Speedway Blue paint with matching rear deck lid spoiler, a large chrome exhaust tip and M-Theory badges. M-theory also features 17-inch Caldina alloy wheels with P215/50R17 tires....."

im out of the US so i have not been in the forums.
I bought these rims for 152 dls. Yes, great deal. I have not received them yet. They will be shipped this week. they are from a 2007 matrix. They came off a package called M-theory. They are the same wheels used in the toyota caldina.   once i get the rims on my bolts, ill take pics if they fit. I am grateful of the countless internet hours i spent to get these rims. I always wanted oem to keep the stock look. yes call me crazy. but i will keep my vert as much OEM as possible. The next 6gc i buy, will be swapped and all that crap. but right now i dont have the money. keep you guys posted.

Just hope they're not +45mm offset or something like that... because it'll be tucked pretty good.

heres the story.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...253533&rd=1 item not described appropiately, no bolt pattern was mentioned and many people doubted they were matrix. My highest bid was 200. I have them in today, 17x7 offset 45, so i will be using 6 mm spacers, oem fits like a charm. Only one wheel has a little damage, that can be repaired easily. 3 rims for 152 its a steal.    so if you stumble accross one of these, THEY ARE
