1988 Olds

Guest
I have a 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Classic and my mom has a 1987 Turbo-T. I was wondering a couple things. Can both these cars use the same wheels. If they are not the same what size rims would fit nicly on my cutlass without anything rubbing. I not sure but I was thinking either a 16-17 X 7-8. Also what is the lug pattern and what backspacing would I need. Also can anyone recomend any they think would look nice. Anyone with pictures would be great to. Also anyone who may be selling them in the Philadephia area Email me at tapviper@aol.com Thanks for everyones help
 
Yes, you can bolt the same wheels on either a Turbo Regal or a RWD Cutlass Supreme. Same bolt pattern. What I have found however is that the Regal seems to have more room in the fender wells then the Cutlass does so you can bolt larger wheels/tires on the Regal without it rubbing.
 
Keep the backspacing between 3.5 and 4.0 inches when using 7-8 Inch wide wheels and you shouldn't have too many problems with fit.
 
Ok thanks for the help. Does anyone know the bolt pattern I would need also. So I guess I can get 16 X 7-8 with 3.5-4.0 inch back spacing and be alright. Any suggestions of maybe a rim and tire combo for like 600-700 or am I going to have to spend more. Being that I am only 16 I kinda like the Enkei MR8 and the low profile tires. Thanks for your help so far guys.
