I was watching the car shows on cable over the weekend and saw the host of
one show solve this dilema a little differently. He used a tool called the
MountMate. I found their website.

This thing figures out what wheel you need to use for the tire you want to
mount!
yeah, it's pricey and I'm not thinking of buying one, but if a local shop
can be found that has one, you could pick out a tire and see if they have a
wheel that'll fit.

Subject: Rims
Hi gang,
I sort of new to the list and was hoping if anyone can tell me exactly what
size rims we can get.
I think the standard rim size is a 14x 5.5 with a 4x4.5 bolt pattern on them
(I'm not sure if I am correct nor do I know the offset).
So now I want to get new tires and rims for my car and was hoping I can put
on 15x6.5 or 16x6.5 inch rims with 205x50 rubber.
Is there any thoughts about what size is the max and offset?
Also, besides the option of minilites or panasports, what other rims can we
get?
Thanks.
