Default help with these rims

I am trying to sell my rims and I don't know anything about rims. I don't even know if these are 4 lug or 5 lug and the offset...On the back of each rim, I see 4-100,5-100, 5-114.3, and 4-114.3 .....Does that mean there are 4 different offsets to the rim? and then I see a bunch of holes which I am guessing that they are 4 and 5 lug? am I right? I attached a picture of what the back of the rim looks like.

no, it does not mean there is 4 diffrent offsets. an offset is how the center part of the actual wheel/fivestar sits in relation to the width of the wheel. like how far in or how far out the center of the wheel is.

there should be ( and it looks like there is) some markings on the inner wheel. usually on the actual star. it will read the size and sometimes the offset. look for it and let us know?

as far as the holes...... the ones that are close together look kinda funny. almost as they where ghetto drilled. but then again they could be 4/5 lug universal

If it was on your lexus it is a 5 x 114.3. Not sure why there is also a 4 bolt pattern in the rear, I guess they were redrilled to the 5 x 114.3

It looks like a 5H114.3 and 4H114.3 Multi Drill. You can fit both.

it also looks like you got a true multi piece wheel.


so, what kind are they?




.....................

also, in most cases your offset will be marked where I circled red
