Alright, so I am looking at some aftermarket wheels for my Buick, and I need to know what exactly to look for as far as dimensions in a wheel. I have searched a couple threads but none have given me the exact answers I am looking for.
I already know that the bolt pattern is 5X120.65, but will 5X120 work? also, I know that the front hub sticks out on these cars and is a fitment issue for some rims, would a brake upgrade in the front solve that?
lastly, I need to know what offset is. I have no idea what it means as far as the wheels go, and I dont know the difference in rear wheel and front wheel spacing as I am new to doing suspension work. here are the rims i was looking at:
eBay Motors: 4-18x9 5x114.3 5x120.65 TSW Chrome Kyalami Wheels/Rims (item 220177739276 end time Apr-20-09 22:37:51 PDT)
If the rims themselves are garbage, please let me know, I want to stay with the GTA/GNX style wheel but in an 18" size all the way around.
Thanks for the help guys.
