Hey all. I found these wheels for sale near me and am looking for your opinions on how you think they'll look on my 500L.

I need a 4x98 bolt diameter since I have 126 hubs. I'm currently running 125 r 12 tires but do you think I'll need wider tires to use the 4.5" rims?

For reference, my 500 is the exact color of the one pictured.

Thanks for the help.

I personally would go up to 135x12 tyres. 2 reasons---(a) it will slightly improve your final gear-ratio. Don't forget to check your speedo accuracy when you have done so---(I am told that a lot of modern phones have a sat-nav facility) and, (b) it will put a little more rubber onto the road which will help with road holding and (possibly) poor weather braking. (y):)

And 135 tyres are cheaper than 125 tyres!
