But they can be changed / modified to be converted from the 170mm pattern to the 6.5" pattern.
Desert guys do this to forged wheels all the time. Local wheel places will re-drill, and install the inserts for around 30-40 bucks a wheel. WHile his takes the cost per wheel up a bit, this is offset by being able to obtain these take-offs for so cheap.
200 bucks for tires and wheels is dirt cheap, add another 120 bucks sounds expensive, but this is still far less expensive than buying just new wheels alone.
Look into having the pattern changed, and you might find your solution.
There are plenty of threads on this all over this site. With a short search, I am confident you wil find what you are looking for.
Good luck.
Forgot to add. You will wnat to know which type od=f vehicle these came off of, and what year it is. The backspacing may be wrong, and keep the tires too far towards the inside of the fender causing some clearance problems.
