Question throwing a multi-fit......

So i found set of rims and tires cheap and local,,"which is a task in it self".But when i enquired about bolt pattern and offset i was told they were muti fit 5 bolt so they would work..their the typical multi fit as in fromm 100mm-114.7mm.Does that mean they will fit anything in between.As well wouldnt i need some spacers or something?the rims are the brand "riax" black spoke with a polished lip..

Irish, they probably are the "usual" multi-fit 100 & 114.3 like you say. Does the seller not have the bolt patterns?

yae thats the bolt patterns he gave me,but I know it hard to get a good fit with rims .So your saying they fit FROM 100mm to 114.3,that makes no sense to me.Their must be some kind of plate or something right?

Multi fit are crap, thedy have weird elongated lug holes. They never are perfect, get some rims made for a jag, I went to a wheel place in WA and for 119.00 - 140.00 each they had 17" and 18" with the proper bolt pattern.
