Alright... I found some rims... The bolt pattern is 5x114 (96 240SX SE pattern)............... And the car I have (92 Cavalier) is 5x100... Now a lot of people said the rims won't fit. Is there any way I can make them fit? I don't want to have to wait until my next car to put these rims on.:disappoin

Nope, those are not going to work. Your lugs are too close together:disappoin

What about CAS Adapters? I just recently found out about them... They're custom made for your needs... $345 shipped

If both cars take about a 35mm offset, that means the pad behind the wheel is aprox the same height (where it mounts to the axle). Any type of adapter is going to move the wheels out away from the axle toward the fenders. That is going to screw up your suspension geometry and will put more of a strain on your wheel bearings etc... Not a good idea.

Even if the spacer is only like 25mm wide? That's the minimum size spacer they use... And what would happen with the suspension, it'd get sloppy?

That's going to move the whole wheel and tire out about 1" further toward the fenders of the car. The angle of the steering and tracking is going to be way off and it would put more strain on your wheel bearings.
