348 wheels on a 308?

They have the wrong offset, go get your money back.

Can you say, " Smoked wheel bearings and fried hubs...?"


Hope you can get your cash back.

The hub diameter and bolt pattern are the same as your 308, but the offsets are very, very different (and would require huge bolt-on spacers and the correct 348 wheel bolts). See this thread for the offset difference data:

If the Seller won't take them back, you'd be better off selling them to a Mondial Owner and getting something else IMO.

 

Where do you measure on the rim for the offset?

 

It's possible. Not the best look, but possible. It will require spacers and longer bolts; talk to Ricambi America, they stock Hill Engineering parts that will work.

Tillman- Those look really nice, as do the couple I have seen with 550 Maranello wheels. Both of those required modifications to either the wheel or suspension/shock mounts to fit properly, however.

The 348 wheels look good enough to go through a little hassle to make them fit.

I have to agree. They don't look good on a 308; actually, they don't look good on a 348 either!

 

Everybody is a critic. Whatever happened to "If you do not have something nice to say, shut the whatever up." May be a slight misquote, but you get the drift. Show us an alternative if you have perfect taste.

+1. Get QV wheels. 348 wheels don't even look right on 348's! That's why you find them for sale frequently.

(nothing wrong with 348's, just the wheels IMO)

 

348 wheels would look great, ,

Zomg! And just like on a lot of 348's... they are backwards!


(Sorry for reviving an old thread, but this one popped up in a search and just HAD to comment. No self control.)

 

OEM 348 wheels look like shipping protector covers over the "real" wheels beneath .... but they are the real wheels.
