What steel wheels from other cars fit Thirdgens?
Hello world,
Does anyone know if there are any other vehicles that come with 16” or larger steel/ rally wheels, that will bolt right up on our Thirdgens? I want something that a hubcap can go in. I assume they do make 16” or larger steel/ rally wheels. Is this assumption correct?
I am looking for a list; I here BMW fits.

free graphics 4 best answer!

What kind of graphics do you mean? decals???
BTW, 2nd gen steel wheels will fit also, they stick out a little further but I run them in the winter too. Have a set of old American Racings on mine now, champ 500 style. Works just fine, perfect winter beater wheels

Our rims are 5 x 4.75" = 120.6mm. A lot of GM rims will work.
BMW and Merc rims will fit as they are 120mm (check backspacing).
...didn't know about the Jag though (good info)
