well this is in the wrong forum since it isnt a jbody but all cavalier wheels are 5x100 with a 57.1mm center bore

looking up a 87 firenza it seems to be the same. a 5x100 bolt pattern and a 57.1mm center bore so they should work

Actually, it seems that it is a J-Body. Wiki link. That pretty much ensures fitment, at least.

Correct, well, maybe the offset was moved around a couple MM each way throughout the years, but the bolt pattern is the same...


BTW the Wiki link wasn't needed... its on the front page of JBO:
