Anybody know what these wheels are?

I am looking for an affordable replacement to my stock 17" wheels on my 2013 sedan.

I found these locally and they have zero scratches/curb rash for $250.

The owner says they are stock 2012 18"s, but I can't find them anywhere online.

Does anyone know the specs on them? I am curious to see what they look like on a G and what is the widest tires or best sized tire that I can fit on them. I do not believe they are staggered.

Thank you!

Those are the base journey coupe rims they are 18x8 w/ a +43 offset, not sure if they clear the big Akenono brakes though, if your sedan isn't an S they will work fine and a 245/45/18 is the widest tire I would run on those.

Thank you for the help! I bought the rims. Should I stagger the tire sizes for any reason?

No, I'd run the same size all around, and being able to do a true 4 wheel rotation is a nice plus

Diameter difference: 0.82" (3.08%)

45 tires increase my diameter by .82" according to the wheel calculator? Will this be ok or should I get 40 ratio tires (which actually decrease my diameter)?

square set up - 18x8's

I'd run the 245/45s those should be OK, if you want to stick w/ 225s I'd go up to the 225/50s though unless you're getting some great deal on that certain size.
