I think I talked about this in another post. but here it is again...

Bolt Pattern is 4x114.3

Depending on what size the wheel is a 40mm offset should work. I run a 34mm on my 17" wheels on my 91 Hatchback. Take a look @ http://www.zilvia.net/pages/rides/my240.asp

so roughly how much work is it to put new rims on a car? I'm seein a lot of numbers here, hehe.

It isnt that hard. Find a rim you like then call the people who sell it and they should be able to tell you if it will fit or not. The actuall install is very ez once the tires are on. I change from my stock to 5ZR wheels all the time.

sweet. You were talkin about bolt patterns, and offsets b4... what's all that?

transient:
Bolt pattern is the number of studs(things that the lugs go on) and distance between them(like 4x114.3 would be 4 studs that are 114.3 mm from each other)
so a 5x114 would be 5 studs etc etc.)
offset is the distance between the hub mounting surface(where the studs are and where the wheels sits when bolted) and the exact center of the rim.(most factory rims have positive offset meaning they are closer to you(the viewer)than closer inside the body of the car.

-hope that helped(i had these same questions before buying my rims)
