The bolt circle is 114.3 mm for both 4 and 5 lug wheels. You want a wheel with +35 to +40 mm offset. I have seen folks run +32 mm, but it is out pretty far.

I've got a set of racing hart evo s15s for sale with kumho 711 215/45-17 tires for sale. $1000 shipped to your door. They are 40mm offset and have about 50 miles on them. Already mounted and balanced with a set of lugs.

A RIM is a part of a wheel.

It's just that every time I try to buy a rim, I am told I have to buy the entire wheel.
