Help me clear something up?

Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

Help me clear something up?

Post by datbonneville »

I have a 94 bonneville se, what's the lug pattern? :dontknow: I've heard 5x120 and 5x115, i know you guys will know for sure. I bought a set of corvette sawblades with tires that im pretty sure are 5x120, i just wanna know whether they will fit or if i need to buy adapters. Thanks guys!

5x114.3 is what you want, Im pretty sure the pattern, offset and center bore will be different on the Vette stuff.

Bonnevilles are 5x115. Lots of people run Mustang wheels, which are 5x4.5", or 5x114.3mm.

The 'vette wheels won't fit for multiple reasons, mostly the backspacing and offset of the wheels, along with the lug pattern.

This is why it's important to do your homework before you buy something that you can't return...
