Rim Fitment.
 
Will the rims from a 90 SSE fit a 95 SSEi and obviously vise versa?


Thanks

Yes. Same bolt pattern and likely identical offset.

Thanks for the reply Wikoff, I'm going to find out at 7:00 am tomorrow morning, I forgot about the offset, thanks for that info also.

the stock tires for '95 will make the '90 go 6.6% faster.

I have 97 front brake parts on my 90 including spindles, calipers and rotors. During the first test drive after the swap, I noticed a moderate clunking sound that increased in frequency the faster I traveled. I found out the front left wheel (1990) was hitting the caliper (1997). I ended up grinding a small amount of material from the caliper so it wouldn't contact the wheel. The right side has never been a problem.

Perhaps a caliper casting out of specs?

They make different calipers for 15" wheels from 16" wheels. That might have something to do with it.

Well I changed them over in order to get the car mobile, and yes, they do fit. Thanks for all the reply's everyone.

True, but the 90 rims are 16" as well
