    I have a set of 19" Katana rims from a 2007 scion tc and I was wondering if they would fit on my 08 lancer.

    Lancer
    Offset: 45mm
    Bolt Pat: 5-114

    Scion
    Offset: 40mm
    Bolt Pat: 5-100

    I know they are different numbers but don't know if that would make a difference. Don't know much about this stuff. If anyone could give me any advice or just let me know if this would work or not it would be great.

    Unless the rims have a multi bolt pattern, then no they wont fit.
    The rims would have to be 5x114.3 for them to fit on the Lancer.
    That number is the number of bolts (5) and the spacing between the bolts (114.3), therefore 5x100 would not fit because the spacing is different.

    Hey thanks. I figured they probably wouldn't fit but I just wanted to make sure. Too bad there isn't a way to alter the bolt spacing to get then to fit. Oh well, I love how the rims look and very dissapointed they won't fit on my lancer.

    Where would be the best place to find an adapter? Is it easier just to go to a local shop that sells rims?

    Don't get adapters. Just sell the ones you have, and get the same ones in the different bolt pattern that would fit the Lancer.

    Adapters are horrible, never buy them or use them.
