| Where do I find out if wheels from one car will fit another? |

Ask here, Im sure someone will know
What kind of car do you drive? What car wheels are you looking at?
most fwd cars use 4x100, 5x100, or 5x114.7 (i think)
or you can go to tire wharehouses website and put in your car there, you can even try out different mags on your car :)

| Keep offset in mind as well when thinking of moving wheels from one model/brand of car to another. |

huh? Offset?
Is that what does plastic rings are for?
I know both cars have a 5 bolt pattern.....and the rims have lots of holes... :unsure: Does this mean they are designed to fit a range of patterns?
Thanks for all the advice :)

That wheel you have pictured looks like an Enkei. If memory serves me correctly my Enkei RP02's can fit both 5X100 and 5X114.3. Don't know if that one would be the same but its a good guess.
The offset is the distance from the back of the center plate to the center of the wheel. The rings you refer to are hubcentric rings. I think they just ensure that the center hole of the wheel fits snugly with the hub to reduce stress on the bolts.

| Umm some 5 bolt rims(like RH's)have 5*100 and 5*120, so there are many different options.. |
