Finding rims that fit

great site yall,I'm Jon & am in the process of experimenting with my car as a lowrider. I recently thought i found 15" 100 spoke wire wheels that fit my 1993 park av, but they stick out slightly. Sum1 told me the rims i have are "standard". Are there any wire rims that can actually fit on a park av or am i doomed from the start?Any help would be great!!

find a wheel with a 5 lug 115 mm backspace, and your good to go.

Here some ideas:

Quick question, I have the 15" rims. I have a 92 Park avenue - not ultra. Can I put the 16" rims on it that come from the Ultra? Will this affect anything? Including the speed-o-meter? If it does can I replace the dash with an Ultra's dash? Just trying to get the car to hold the road better. Thanks!

go to tirerack.com and put in your current wheel and tire size, and the wheel size your going to. They'll tell you the updated tire dimensions so you can order the same overall size, you follow what I'm saying? Increase wheel size, the tire size shrinks.

You can also look up what the factory 16 inch wheels had on it to, go to tirerack.com and pretend like youve got the ultra and it'll give you the adjusted size.

Thanks Tman! Good site!

If I picked up 4 16 x 6 rims with tires from an Ultra can I just switch them out? I just want to double check to make sure cause from what that site said it looks like 92 PA's can take both the 15 and 16" rims. And last, will this affect my speed o meter? Thanks again!

While on the topic, would a Bonneville rims fit 85-90 PA/Le Sabre?

I have alot of gold trim on mine and want to use the honeycombed Bonneville one's in gold, I think it would look sharp.

All of the GM cars of the 80’s listed below, use the 5 on 115mm (4.527") wheel.
Buick - Century, Electra, LeSabre, Regal, Riviera (some) '83-'89
Cadillac - Allante, most others '84-'89
Chevrolet - Celebrity '85-'89
Oldsmobile - Regency, Ciera, Cutlass, Delta 88 '84-'89
Pontiac - 6000 '83-'89- Bonneville, Grand Am '86-'89

Also, I am pretty sure that about all the 90-05 FWD Bonneville, LeSabre, Park Avenue, Monte Carlo, Regal, Cutlass and Grand Prix are interchangeable. Some of the newer ones have 17" wheels; however the hub bolt pattern are the same 5X115mm.

This is not an advertisement for Tire Rack, just passing on some suggestions and good deals;
Check out the Kazera KZ-T 18X7.5 for $129.00 ea closeout. Click on the wheel size to see them on the PA. Upgrade Garage (http://www.tirerack.com/upgrade_garage/WheelSearch.jsp?changeColor=Choose+Color&filterSize=&filterFinish=&filterSpecial=true&autoMake=Buick&autoModel=Park+Avenue&autoModClar=&autoYear=1992)Regular price of these wheels were, $449.00 ea! This is the most "wheel for the money", I have ever seen!! They look good on the PA or LeSabre.:iceslolan

Recommended tire size: 225/45YR18 Yokohama AVS ES100 (http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Yokohama&tireModel=AVS+ES100&partnum=245WR8ES100&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes&place=8) $143.00, a very good tire for the money!:grinyes:
