I'm looking at getting some new wheels for my AE92 Hatch. I will be looking around the $1000 mark and would like something between 14" & 16". Could others with AE92's post pics of their wheels and approx prices? I will concider second hand or new

i wouldnt put anything over 15 on a sprinter... personally that is..
14s look good .. 16s look too big for the car.. but thats just my opinion..
cant really suggest anything good for them though..
i used to drive mine illegally on crappy ones i got from wreckers... to save some money.. seeing as i shredded them a bit when i was learning.. and then i needed cheap tyres anyway
Sorry dude.. ill see what i can find anyhow.. i hav emates with Sprinters.
Peace

I think you are thinking of the AE86. I have an AE92 (AE93 same thing) corolla hatch. Does anyone know of any other cars with the same stud pattern and offset?

sorry yeah.. LOL..
they should be pretty similar though..
hmm.. it really depends... you know, cars primary use, is it purely for show or are you looking to get something else out of it..
all those things.
Sorry about the Sprinter Confusion.. it was too early for me to differenciate between numbers
Or at least thats my excuse
Peace

Just have a look around the net for pics of Rolla's with rims...
I think the Stocker alloys look okay, well they're good enough for me...
I had 16's on my car before and they were great, looked great aswell... But sadly, insurance didn't agree on the 7" wide thing...
15's and 16's look good on AE93's and anything bigger is illegal anyway...

check out second hand wheels perhaps imported wheels. keep looking until you find the wheels you want and get them dont just get wheels because you have the money. wait and you will be happier. just my opinion
