View Full Version : Opinion on these rims

I have a 2001 XD GT and have the dreaded shimmery and decided to look for some rims. I came across these: Konig 15" rims that are 4 lugs and are 15"X6.5" and the seller says he took it off a 2000 Tib. So my questions here are.

1. Will my stock GT tyres go on these or do I need to get new tyres.
2. How will the rims look on my car (Silver GT), bone stock.

EDIT: Here are the pre and the post pictures. I know my car needs a wash. I am sure the rims will look a lot better after getting the car washed and rims cleaned.

2000 Tib used a 195/55 tire, so you'll likely want your tires. What offset are those?

I thought the elantra and the Tib had the same offset but I could be wrong

So even though the 2000 Tib uses the same rims as the XD GT, the offset is different?

Think those will look good on a silver XD and yes, your tires will fit on those rims.

They are aftermarket wheels. Just cause the bolt up doesn't make the offset right.

I spoke to the seller and he says he just swapped out the rims on the Tiburon and did nothing to it. Just removed the stock tires changed the rims and slapped them on. He doesnt know what offset they are. Now should I worry or go get em?

If they fit the tub, they'll fit the Elantra. They used the EXACT same wheel for the GT Elantra as the 00-1 Tibs.

I'm just wanting 35mm offset 15x6.5 wheels wit hthe 4x114.3 bolt pattern for the project.

UGH..I just found out he had it on a 98 TIB. Here is his email: they have a minor, minor scuff on one rim that does not go to the metal (just paint scuff). The tires are 205/50R15. They were on a 1998 Tiburon and they will fit a 2001 Elantra. Now WHAT?

They look good and they will fit if they are 114.3x4 and were on a tib. Actually they look close to 42 (the offset)

If your car were slammed those would look sweet. If not, they still should look pretty good. I'd do it man.

BTW: Which shimmery are you talking?
