The stud pattern on an ST162 is 5x100, meaning 5 studs spaced equally on a circle of diameter 100mm. A rim with a 5x114.3 hole pattern will not fit, period.

The standard offset for the ST162 is +39mm. (You can find this cast into the wheel under the centre cap, if you still have the original rims.) Check the diagram below for an explanation of offset:

In addition to moving the rim inwards (when the offset is increased) or outwards (when decreased), changing the offset will also change the track width, ie the distance between the rim centrelines measured across the car. Changing the track width may be illegal for you so it would be wise to check. For instance in QLD you can increase the track width up to 26mm (ie 13mm per side) but not decrease it.

Hope that helps.

Matt
