alright, i've been reading previous posts about wheel sizes and what is and isnt recommended. The wheels i want are Axis Hagen 19x8 5-114.3 w/+45 offset...and from what i've read, these shouldnt fit an alero...correct?
so i was wonderin if there are any rims out there that look similar and smaller, i'd prefer 17's or 18's. This is what the Hagens look like:

theres tons of plain five stars that look similar to those. Just make sure you have the 115mm 5bolt pattern. My rims don't have quite that offset, so i had to put thinner rubber so it didn't rub on my coil. 18's are a pretty sweet size rim, i hear they're harder to balance then 17's though, and if you get rims you gotta drop your car, thats a given. Check on Ebay for some ideas of different styles.

45 offsets don't fit.
I found this out the hard way
Offset between +38 and +42 is cool.
Check out Tire Rack They have a alot of cool rims and they will fit

I meant I know where he lives (used to live there) and I know how the roads are. Not lowered-car friendly. I bottom out in parking structures and my driveway at stock height.

All those styles look good! and 5x114.3 should work if they don't make the 5.115 in the style you like, just get hub centric rings :thumbsup:
