ok there are only two sizes for those years 16x8,15x7. look at the tire .. and if it says 245/50/16 then you have a 16x8, and if you have something close to 235/60/15 then you have the 15x7 rim. that is the easiest way to figure it out. there ya go any more questions just ask. we all have to start out somewhere.

I could be wrong, and have before, but those don't come in 16". They are 15x7.

They come in 16x8's in that kind of car but u have to have a formula in order for them to come with it.

Those are 15x7's my friend. I know them anywhere.

you have 15x7's and if you really want to know what's the best, go to www.TireRack.com and you can do a search on your car. I think the BFG Radial T/A's look really nice on the 15's but they aren't the best. Good, but not GREAT. Just look around.
