It's just easier to ask here:



Just my 5-lugs, shopping for rims online...what are the lug dimension?

And if you're feeling informative, what are some decent rims that aren't pricey?

or should I just go for the sleeper and get the stock 5-lug rims? it's not like my car is pretty or anything. It might look weird with nice rims and cruddy paint job. Did I just answer my own question?

go with the 91 5 lug 5 stars if you can find some... I love the way they look for stockers.



your bolt pattern is 5x114.3 or 4.5 if that is what you needed

What do you suggest? I'll be using them for daily driving, in a spirited manner. No racing or auto-x in my near future.

Enkei RS5s are my new inexpensive favorite.







I have Enkei RSEs on my car now.

www.whalentire.com is the best I've found. I'm getting 17x7 RS5s with tires for $950 shipped...and you could too.
