Correct Wheel size for a '94 RMW

Subject: Correct Wheel size for a '94 RMW Wed Jun 03, 2015 6:25 pm

Hi,

I was wondering if someone can give me the correct wheel size for my '94 RMW? They are 15", but I need to know the width, bolt pattern, and offset. I want to get a set of Torque Thrust rims for it. I really don't want to get a bigger rim, one because I don't like them, and I want to keep the diameter the same, so I don't have to get the speedo re calibrated. I like sidewalls on my tires, so I'm just not into the 'rubber band' tires! I might go with a 16" rim, but that would be the biggest. If I did, then what would be the width, and offset I'd need for those?

Thanks,
John

Your wagon came from the factory with 15x7 rims in both steel or aluminum with a 5x5/5x127mm bolt pattern and a 78.3mm center bore.I just bought a set of 17x8 torque thrust IIs with 0 offset and they look and fit great.In 15 inch,I would go with either go with a 8 inch width and the same 0 offset.You can use a larger centerbore wheel but I got mine with the 78.3 mm size for a hub centric fit.I just removed a set of 17x8 chrome BBS wheels due to the chrome flaking off badly,by the way my 91 OCC is the same color as yours.Get the wheels with the anthracite finish,I got mine in black and while the black finish looks great I think the anthracite will look more traditional with this particular color.

Thanks for the info! What is "anthracite" finish? I would like to get the torque thrust style rims, with the black spokes, and chrome rims.

Its a metallic silver finish,my TTs have the polished rims which look great,dont know if you can even get the rims in chrome anymore.

Agreed. I paint wheels any color you want for $129 per wheel (plus shipping) each additional color is $45 per wheel.

There are a bunch of us out there.
