Ok i bought some motegi MR12 for my 98 Tiburon. Here are the specs of the wheels

17x7.5 +40mm 25.5lbs
8H (4-100 / 4-4.5 or 4.25)

The tire guy said i would need some spacers but everything would be fine.

Now i went to Team SR Forums and Random said one day the stress of the tire weighting down on my lugs would make them POP OFF !because of the Hubcentric desgin of Hyundais.

Now does anyone know the correct bolt pattern i need to look for so i dont have to buy spacers or Any wheels reconmmedations? im a student and even tho i want my car to look tight i dont want to screw it up....

Thanks everyone

i hope so..because i could have bought a crap load of Mods instead of these wheels :(

but i did go to motegi's main site and they talked about hubcentric-ness (is that a word?LOL) so i sent them a email about my wheel...i guess i just wait to see what happens

Ok got my email from Motegi and they said "NONE" of the wheels will fit on the Tiburon because of the none of there wheels are made with a brake pad relief???

what does that mean?
now im really confused...i could have sworn ive seen motegi's on other Tiburons

But now i thinking about giving my wheels back to my friend and getting the Nippon Racing Mongoose Or some 5Zigen Fireball's..anyone know anything about these wheels before i buy them <img src=icon_smile_sleepy.gif border=0 align=middle> they both have a +42 Offset & 4x114 8 Holes

Good,bad? or am i still not getting it
