Mk1 MR2's are 4X100 fitment the same as a Starlet so yes you should be able to use them. The mk2 MR2's are a five stud setup which is no good. I think the mk3 version (recent ones) went back to the 4X100.

yeah i understand that bit mate but im worried about the offset diffrence or what ever causeing unstable handling!., would the offset matter?

So long as you stick close to ET38 you should be fine, the lower the number the further out the wheels will sit, for example I've noticed ET35's can make the outside tyrewall scuff the OSR arch at times depending on the wheels in question. I would try before you buy if at all possible.

i think it depends how wide the wheel is 6.5, 7 etc so not always true?

It'll be stamped on them somewhere buddy.

Exactly, either he needs to provide more info on the exact wheels (which even then is a guessimate as suspension settings could be an issue) or try beforehand.

Hope that helps,

Seem a bit thin (5.5) compared to what's listed here (clicky).

What offset is stamped on them?

TBH I'd say they should be grand but to be 100% fit them and find out amigo.
