    What? Isn't it 5x114.3? Its probably the most common stud pattern on the planet dude!

    Nope. It's 5 x 139.7 or 5x5.5". And it requires an offset depending on width of -12 to +15. most wheels in that pattern are a lot higher (+35 to +40) or a lot lower (-20 to -45)

    If it was 5 x 114.3 I would have changed wheels a long time ago.

    Ah wow, that is pox. Turns out they're both, low GVM models are 5x114.3.
    At least you should have little issue getting American wheels for it like you'd pictured. Check out Jegs, Summit Racing and Tirerack.

    Yeah ford ranger is 5X114.3, but the brakes are a lot smaller. And the majority of my gear comes from Summit already

    Wheels are the last thing on my list. Ill wait till everything else is done then get some new shoes. I know what ones I want, but Ive got the 86 to finish and a few things to do on this first.

    yeah.... nah. As Ive said before, if it was a 4x4, it'd have a 6 inch lift and 40's.

    But it's just my daily and tow car, so low and big wheels it is.

    haha, Id love to, but they wont fit. most 11's and 12's have too low backspacing to fit under normal guards.

    The wheels I want are an 18 x 9 0 and a 20 x 10 -6 American Racing Torq-thrust II in polished. But, Ive got to finish the 86 and get a bit more done on this before I replace my wheels.

    Like replacing the heads as Ive burnt an exhaust valve. Ive located a reco'd set, just need to do something about it.
