RIMS

I've never looked into putting different rims onto my car.Anyone know what they would have to be as far as offset and stuff? I bought some used ones,they are 16" and they are wrapped in 225/50/16 nitto NT450's,will those fit without spacers? They are universal 5 lug

You can fit 225's on a '94??

It's a different rim,it's an aftermarket rim and the tires are on it,i don't know if it will fit,that's why I'm asking

I dont think a 225 will fit without rolling the fenders. I'd say 205 max.

-Jason

What do you mean by rolling the fenders?

im not too sure if your 16"s will fit.....
but i too am looking to purchase some 18" rims sometime this week, and they happen to be 5 lug universal...
so im guessing ==> 5lug universal = fits all 5lug cars no problem?

As far as bolting up,yes they should fit. With 18's your probabally going to have to get a very very low profile tire to get them to fit.As for mine,I have large 14" tires stock,and with the 2" bigger rim,and 50 size,instead of 70 size,they should fit.What i mean by the sizes are the factory tire size vs the aftermarket size. 195/70/14 were the stock tires, 225/50/16 is the new one,I should get the rims and tires tomorrow.

i ended up getting the rims i wanted, along with low pro tires as well.

so my question is.....
anyone know of any good type of lug nuts, cuz the stock lug nuts are too short and i prefer longer ones. So just out of curiosity, what are the type of lug nuts you (question open to everyone w/aftermarket rims) use?

any info will be appreciated.
im thinking i should just check ebay or something..... but just curious as to what people use.
Thanx

This is a process where the edge of the fender is flared out in a way that will allow a wider tire to fit into the wheel well. You cant rent 'fender rollers' from places, unless you have expierence doing this, I would take it somewhere to be professionally done. I have seen people cut the fender... but I don't recomend this.

GReddy and Skunk2 make aftermarket lugs. Not sure if they would fit though.

-Jason

i used black racing tuner lug on my solara...its really light weight and looks nice.....but its around 120 to 130 a set.....camrys lug size is 12x1.5

The rims and tires went on with no issues,so the nitto nt450 225/50/16 tires were perfect

Any rubbing ? Damn this makes me want to put 225s on.

-Jason

No rubbing at all.They look sweet.I'm gonna go to my parents house after my sister gets out of school and borrow her camera,then I will take some pics of the rims and tires

How about 19s, lowered with the guards/fenders rolled so no rubbing and still has smooth ride
