I'm thinking of buying DRAG DR11 BLACK rims[18x7.5 42offset] for the 6 for $405 +shipping off of ebay, but I've never really heard of this brand. Anyone know if they're any good?

Also the bolt pattern is 4x 100/114.3 (4 Lugs) and I know the 6 is 5lug, would that make them not fit?

Any feedback on these would be nice.


Thanks,
Kevin.

if your 5 lug and the rims are 4 they will not work unless you get a 5 lug to 4 lug adapter but Im not a fan of those just dont feel safe to me. Just try and find some that will actually fit your car right and your good to go. Never heard od DRAG rims either

Kinda like putting a square peg in a round hole. Won't work. Find some other wheels. You'll need 5x114.3, sometimes referred to as 5x4.5.

Yup, don't even bother if it is 4-Lug. You can see the Drag wheels at http://www.machiii.net ... they are nice wheels, but I don't know how well they hold up with fading, chipping, and bending.

my brother has drag rims on his '06 civic. The dealership put the rims on the vehicle prior to selling it new. They are pretty nice wheels, black with a chrome lip, and so far have held up well, they've been on the car for over a year. He had issues with rubbing, but that has nothing to do with the wheels.

It doesn't sound safe... Just look for another set of wheels...

Just keep looking...I've seen Drag's in a 5x114.3 pattern...if you're looking on eBay, there are like 10 options for the same wheel...look for the one that fits our cars...

Here are the ones that fit
