15" Steel Wheels on '03 Vibe GT ?

Post by Ding »

I have a done bunch of searching here as well as over at MO. However, I can not seem to find a definitive answer to the following question . . .Will 15 x 6 (or 6.5) steel wheels with a 5 x 100 bolt pattern and 39mm offset work on the '03 Vibe GT that has stock disk brakes all around?If so - Where is the best place to get a set of these wheels (price)?If not - What size should I be looking for ?These are obviously for winter tires. I have run Blizzak's for many years now on several vehicles, couldn't even tell you how many sets I have gone through. I am completely sold on this tire, and hope to try the REVO 1 this year.For the last 3 years I ran the WS-50's on 16 inch Aluminum rims (205/55 16's on Sport Edition F5 - 16 x 7.5 wheels)While they are a very good combination, the footprint is a little too big for the car to make it optimal in snow or slush. (I am only basing this on a lot of seat-time experience)Another issue is that the flat area on the wider wheels loads up, and then slides to the bottom where it freezes when stopped. This makes it feel like the tires are square when you start out the next morning.I am hoping that the steel wheels are less affected by this.Anybody got any other winter wheel advice for the Vibe GT?

OK I admit i got very lucky cause I found out that I had a set of 4-15" steelies off of a 93 Plymouth Duster sitting in my garage that would work for my snow tires. Here is a list of all the rims that have the correct bolt pattern. Please note that the Bore is larger on many of these so driving for 3 or 4 months is OK but not the life of your car and they also don't list the offset:Toyota Matrix Base/XR/XRS 2003-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 54.06mm Bore)Toyota Corolla CE 2003-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 54.06mm Bore)Toyota Corolla S 2003-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 54.06mm Bore)Toyota Corolla LE 2003-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 54.06mm Bore)Toyota Camry 1986-1991 (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 54.06mm Bore)Chevrolet Cavalier (all models) 1989-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Chrysler Cirrus LX/LXI 1995-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Chrysler Neon base LX 2001-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Chrysler PT Cruiser 2000-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Chrysler Sebring LX Convertible 2002-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Chrysler Sebring LX Sedan/Plus 2002-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Daytona Base 1987-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut)Dodge Daytona Pacifica 1987-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut)Dodge Daytona Shelby Z 1987-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut)Dodge Neon (all models) 1998-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Neon (5x100) 1995-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Neon ACR 2001-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Neon R/T 2001-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Neon SE/ES 2001-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Stratus Base 1995-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Stratus Base with ABS 1995-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Stratus ES 1995-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Stratus SE/ES Sedan 2001-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Dodge Stratus SE Plus Sedan 2002-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Oldsmobile Achieva (all models) 1992-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais (all models) 1985-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera 5x100 1984-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Oldsmobile Firenza ) 1985-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Plymouth Acclaim 1989-1995 (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Plymouth Breeze 1994-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Plymouth Laser 1985-1989 (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Plymouth Neon Sport 5-lug 1994-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Plymouth Sundance 1987-1994 (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Pontiac Fiero 1984-1989 (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Pontiac Grand Am 1985-1998 (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Pontiac Sunbird 1985-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Pontiac Sunfire 1995-up (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 57.10mm Bore)Pontiac 6000 1982-1990 (5x100mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 57.10mm Bore)Subaru Forester Base/S 1998-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.25 Lug-nut / 56.15mm Bore)Subaru Impreza 1993-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.25 Lug-nut / 56.15mm Bore)Subaru Legacy 1990-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.25 Lug-nut / 56.15mm Bore)Subaru Outback 1995-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.25 Lug-nut / 56.15mm Bore)Volkswagen Beetle (all models) 1998-up (5x100mm / HPO / 14x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)Volkswagen Corrado G60 1989-1992 (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)Volkswagen Corrado SLC V6 1992-1994 (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)Volkswagen Fox 1987-up (5x100mm / HPO / 12x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)Volkswagen Golf IV (all models) 1999-up (5x100mm / HPO / 14x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)Volkswagen Jetta IV (all models) 1999-up (5x100mm / HPO / 14x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)Volkswagen Jetta GLX VR6 1993-1995 (5x100mm / HPO / 14x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)Volkswagen Passat GLX VR6 1993-1995 (5x100mm / HPO / 14x1.5 Lug-bolt / 57.10mm Bore)
