^ No it is not. You only need extended studs for spacers.

Rota wheels don't fit the tC, even if the bolt pattern works. There are wheel spacer adapters that don't require extended studs because they use the factory studs to be bolted down and come with new studs in the spacer.

why wouldn't these wheels fit a tC?

a 48mm offset will be perfectly fine. stock offset on the factory 17's is (i believe) either 45-47 and plenty of people run 48mm offsets.

i put on my friends volks te-37's, 18x8's and with a 32 offset but i didn't drive around. but honestly it felt "unsafe" with that low of an offset on the tc.

i mean eff spacers, just get a lower offset. it was just a question, i want to go with an 18x8 wheel eventually with a low offset to be flush

Nebster put together a chart and shows wheel and tire sizes to match if you want a tuck or flush setup. It should be up in the stickied threads. If you want to run flush the tires will be stretched to get the stance right and minimize rubbing the fenders.

were not really hating were just trying to educate you that rotas are poorly quality rims. If that's what your dead set on getting then fine go for it. We're just trying to make sure you understand that you get what you pay for
