Hi,
Is it possible to get 14x7" or 14x6.5" or even 14x6" wheels in stock black (the ones u put hubcaps on)? It's just that my hubcaps look so cool =P jk
I think mine are 4x100 pattern btw.

yes it is.
I managed to find a set of 14x6 that fit my FWD Corolla. They came off a VW Golf i belive, and the offset looks right. I havent put tyres on them yet and put them on the car, but test fitting them, the offset looked ok.

For FWD ones, just get factory 14" steelies, or if you have a RWD car, then R31 skyline wheels should do it.

thanks for ur help guys..
mrshin: i want really wide ones (legal width though), cos mine are about 14x5.5", and don't grip very well (they're also very worn). Oh and I think maybe my scratched up hubcaps might look even better than full sik chrome ones =P
haggis: thanks..was this off the old vw golf? cos i thought the new golfs were 5 studs?
cheers

late model Astras run a 4/100 PCD,and a 14x6" wheel.
I just threw out a set I've had lying around for a few years,as noone wanted them.
15x6" current model corolla stockies aren't too hard to come by.
I could likely get you a set of these if you wanted some.
I advertised those a few months ago,and noone wanted them either,even for $50 for 4! they'd been on the car for a total of 6km!

If you want something wider than 6", I'd say you have no choice but to get a set of stockies modified - I can't think of any car that comes out standard with steelies in any kind of serious size - get some 15x6's stuffed out to 15x8, fit 235 tyres, and a set of flares, and it'll look FAT - and you probably won't even need the 'ful sik' hubcaps then!

i have 185/60/r14 on my car, running factory alloys, and they are 5.5" wide, pretty sure u can't get a 195 on there least thats what the bridgestone dude told me, as for wheel width basically the tyre can't protude from the body work AND the track width middle of tyre to middle of tyre can't exceed that from factory.
This is what i am lead to believe from the unhelpful at transportsa
