American Racing Wheels for my Cavy
Tuesday, July 22, 2008 1:47 PM
I'm looking at the Coil model Wheels for my cavalier. I have heard from some people that they won't fit, while others say there shouldn't be a problem. I'm driving a 1998 Cavalier Z24, and i have no idea what the offset or lug pattern is for it. hopefully one of you can help me with my dilemma...heres a link to the catalog page for the wheels. Coil Wheels by American Racing
Any help is greatly appreciated!

The lug pattern for J-Bodies(including your car) is 5x100. The three options have either a 42mm or 40mm offset which is fine, mine are 40mm. The backspacing is right where you need it to be according to this chart...

...It sounds like they'll fit to me.
