I don't think you could fit the fronts under the front of the car. If you could find 4 rears then you might have a shot if the bolt pattern is the same. You can find them online or on ebay, but for the price a aftermarket wheel is gonna be better.

They are very wide. The fronts are wider then the rear on the GXP rims. So hight wise if they would line up bolt pattern wise they would be fine. After you put rubber on them then they would probably be tearing the fenders off or crushing them on bumps.

There is a reason the GXP handles better than the Monte and Imp....one of those is the less wide rear tires!

yeh but what happens to the rear tires is that they easly break loose and slide when your cornering hard and thats a little scary when it hits you unexpectedly.......I hate surprises the front grips a whole hell of alot better than the rear and I kind of don't like that.
