    Found a set of oldschool bbs asa rims in the garage of the palce im renting, im gonna ask the owner about buying them and chances are he will give them away for free or like 50 bucks. They are covered in dust and some grime but once cleaned would look pretty cool.

    Its a 14x6 rim with a 5x??? bolt pattern. If the bolt pattern is right, will I be able to run 205/60/14 fine on them?

    What offset should I be aiming for and will it say on the insde of the rim?

    Would I need to get an allignment done? im currently running 195/65/14 so the same theoretical size.

    Ill snap some pics next chance I get

    They should fit fine with 205/60/14s - stock is 14 x 6 with same tire size.
    Factory offset is +39mm.
    I don't belive an alignment is necessary in your case.

    ok, they are 14X6 "J" ET38

    So im assuming this is 38 offset and that pretty close to 39. any ideas what the J vs JJ means?
