    I've been playing around with rims for my Fiesta and a friend of mine pointed me towards this site...not sure how accurate, but it's pretty cool anyway. Enjoy

    It is as accurate as the info you put in. The hard part is finding your OE wheel info.

    Never played with will they fit but I have saved the other calculator in my bookmarks. Comes in handy when trying to find a size that fits from random CL finds.

    I've found this to be one useful source of OE wheel info:

    http://www.discountedwheelwarehouse.com/Vehicle_Bolt_Pattern_Reference.cfm

    It's not complete, but it's better than nothin

    atleast what i looked at that doesnt give me much of any info. saying high positive offset doesnt tell me if something will fit. thats anything 35 plus.... i run a 48 offset on my car with 7.5 rims and a 245 tire and have 8 mm clearance to the knuckle and 4 mm to the fender when its loaded. not exactly room for error there.

    I use rimsntires frequently. I also use <a href="http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html">Miata.net Tirecalc for a quick check of alternate tire sizes.
