rim newbie

[Ultimate X]

im considering gettin a set of exel pack5

http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/exel/exel.htm

and i was wondering how i can tell if it fits my car cuz i dont get some of this stuf like

Bolt Pattern: 4x100, 5x100, 5x114.3
and
the numbers under the prices like this (205/40/17)

btw i drive a 04Solara V6SLE

edit: found this on the toyota site for my wheel size: P215/55R17

the number that starts with 202 or 215 is your TIRE size, not your rim size. The wheels will fit your car since your bolt pattern is 5x114.3, but if you're getting 17's and your existing tires are good, then keep those, if they're already worn out, then you'll want to get another set of tires in the same size. These are available at tirerack.com or any tire store

wheelmax has alot of nice wheels but doesn't do a very good job at helping you pick the correct tire size for their car and they don't stock many different tires.

but what i dont get is how do u tell the bolt pattern cuz i didnt know which 5 was mine

also by any chance would u know my max size

[drdisque]

i know your bolt pattern is 5x114.3 because I looked it up.

The largest rims you can safely put on your car are 19's

whered u look it up from and is 20 completly out of the question or i cant do certain things with em

you could fit 20's, but they might rub around corners and it would not be safe.
