Default Bonneville rims and sizes

I believe that my lugs are 5 x115 and 40 mm offset. I know what the 5x115 means but am a little sketchy on what the offset is. My friend has a 99 cobra and he will give me his rims if they fit my car, that * right, give! hes getting new ones. Wil lthey fit. also will grand prix rims fit our cars? Thanks for all the help!

the cobre roms wont fit your car, They are RWD rims the Bonneville rims are FWD. Yes grand Prix rims will fit our cars although there rims are .5 inches smaller in width

take the cobra rims and sell them and buy what you wany for your car

I thought GP wheels were just as wide as ours. Most of them run the same tire size. I'm pretty sure GA ones are smaller though.

All you really need to know is 115mm bolt pattern and five lug (115 X 5). That will make sure the rim will bolt up to your ride. As for the width, that all depends on how wide of a tire you want to run. You can't go too wide, or it'll rub/scrape on suspension parts.
