I'm the USA. what are some good looking rims for Lanos?

Post by Edman »

I have a 4-door 2000 Daewoo Lanos, what do you think are some inexpensive good looking rims? I have the basic stock black rims now, but looking for some not too crazy nice rims. Any suggestions?

Thanx, Edman...

Well... 1st, as someone recently corrected me. The rim is just the flat part of the outter part of the wheel. The spokes and rim combined would be correctly referred to as the 'wheel'. Then the tire is wrapped around the 'rim' of the 'wheel'.

That being said... I've found that www.DiscountTire.com tends to have some good wheels for a decent price. I'm planning on getting some myself soon. :) There are loads of pictures there available. Unfortunately they don't have our Daewoo's in the "see what it looks like on your car" tool. Either way, check it out.

If you're looking for cheaper then that, you'll probably have to buy them on ebay or out of your local paper. The thing to keep in mind is to make sure you get the correct 4 bolt setup.

Your vehicle uses a 4-100 bolt pattern. It's the same as Civics, Intergas, Corollas, Haundai accents.. ect.

This doesnt mean you can bolt on any wheel that fits these cars to your own vehicle. Because these cars are all designed differently they call for different offsets for each width of wheel so they clear all mechanical parts under the respective vehicle. Just as Johnny C suggested, I would reccommend Americas Tire Co, which should be local to you. I worked for them for 3 years, and can personally say that most times they will be helpful. I can also tell you they would be very eager to sell you some new wheels. And if you have a price in mind they should be able to accommodate you. They are very competitive. They will give you all the choices and let you choose which wheel you like best.

These are pretty rough figures, but should be mostly accurate.

14" wheels
5.5" +35 (near stock)
6.0" +33 - +38

15" wheels
6.5" +38 - +40
7.0" +35 - +40

16"
7.0" +36 - +42

17" wheels
7.0" +38 - +45
7.5" +40 - +45

For each size, the more positive the number, the more it will be sucked into the fender well. The more negative the number, the more it will be moved out towards the lip.

So, if you have plans to lower a car drastically, choose the more positive, and more narrow wheels, for less body or mechanical interference (most times).

Hope this helps some wOo-TaNg
