wheel question

[86_cutlass]

ok looking to buy rims sometime for my 86 cutlass supreme. this set would be spring/summer use only i would like stock size rims and tires. what sizes are they? what is the bolt pattern?

are there any programs to view wheels on cars cause i dont know if i want Cragar SS's or Soft 8's both look fantastic on g-bodies but i want to see both on my car to judge better.

personal experience tips are greatly appreciated and pics too

Stock size should be a 195 75 R14 on a 14x6 in wheel. Bolt pattern is 5 x 4.75. Personally, I would NOT run stock size tires as they are too narrow and small.

but i could run 15x7 cragar's no problem with some decent tires

You can use 15x7 and get a good tire size and be fine. I've heard going up to 235/60/15 on the front. There may be some rubbing depending on the ride height of your car. Rears can take up to 275/60/15.

Just throwing in my $0.02 but I were to buy aftermarket wheels then I would buy 16" rims. That way if you want to do the large brake upgrade in the future then you won't need to buy new wheels and the price of the 16's should not be much more than 15's.
