Best is the early 3 series beemers as they have both the same stud pattern (4x100mm) but also the correct offset (25mm positive). The camira, early pulsar, corolla, sprinter, some hondas, the calibra and a fair few other cars have the same stud pattern but offsets vary.

I got 'em too and they look shit-hot for a set of stockies. I got the original hubcaps in the middle to keep them neat looking too (original hubcaps for a panelvan anyway).

O.K here we go...
After a few years in the tyre game,,,
Most later model cars(FWD)are 4x100,but the centre hole is smaller on a few of them eg nissan pulsar(14"pursuit style)
will not go over the front hub. If you get mag wheels off 1 of these cars, then usually they have a locating ring in the back. Take it out and they should fit no probs.
Sometomes the inset on front wheel drive cars may seem excessive when u try 2 bolt them to a gem(hitting the shock absorber)but in most cases when the car is on the ground they will clear no probs( I have 16"off a late model daewoo that foul on the shocks when the front is in the air)
You cannot use 13"FWD mags because they foul on either the top ball joint, the steering arm or the turning circle is affected.the most usable wheels are,,,
VW polo 14x6(standard & mag)
Honda integra
Nissan pulsar (mag only)
Daewoo nubira (the steel wheel is a VERY tight fit)
Holden calibra (these are 15"factory)
BMW series 3 (4stud series)
Hyundai (just kidding!!)
Toyota corolla (seca & a few other models)
I hope this helps you on your wheel choices!

daewoo nubira
