Default Will this fit a GS4?

Either you love these or hate them...I have been looking for a set of Dronell CA-05's for over a month. Will this offset work?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1850240500

I am really not a big fan for purchasing big ticket items on eBay, however I can't seem to find these anywhere because they are discontinued.

Thanks for the help.

I've talked to this guy and he seems ok.

For the wheels...

1) no offset is listed but it is probably ok

2) listed as fitting Mercedes and import...no way in Hell. Unless there is a center cap and 10 holes, they wont fit both. More than likely they are the Mercedes fitment and you can rig them to go on a lex.

If they are not 114.3x5 bolt pattern without drilling/modification, DO NOT BUY THEM!!!!!

Call him to see.

Late.

drilling the hole from 112 to 114.3 mm.....we don't recommend it, but it can be done at a good machine shop that does wheels. You will alkso need a diff centering ring (merc=66.56, lex=60.1)

Thanks WE. If they are not 114 x 3.5 then I will pass on them. From your experience, do you forsee Dronell wheel's or something similar coming back?

Thanks for the help!
