I was wondering if any one knew the bolt pattern of my 1993 Ford Probe SE? I'm trying to get rims that fit. Also would anybody know if the rims of an 95 Mitsubishi Eclpise fit my Probe? Since they both are fwd and 5 lugs. Any info would help. I'd appreciate it. Thank You, DJR

The bolt pattern on the 2gen Probe/MX6/626 is 5 x 4.5 (5 x 114.3mm is the same thing). The first generation Probes are the same too, btw. The Eclipses from 1989 right up to 1999 use the same bolt pattern, 5 x 4.5. This seems to be a popular pattern too, just form looking at the list of cars that use it. Check out the link below to see the whole list if you have any other cars in mind, but may I suggest the split 5 spoke wheels from a 95?-97 Ford Mustang if the Eclipse wheels dont work out. Ive seen these wheels on a 2gen PGT and they looked pretty good, in my opinion. Back on subject. The main thing to be concerned with is the offset: will it rub, will it touch the caliper, etc. I found out the offset and such from another page. "The offset is +46mm, with a 5-lug, 114mm radius circle bolt pattern. The centerbore (hub) is 67.06mm in diameter". Now the PGT wheel uses a +40 offset, I just looked at a PSE 3 spoke 15" wheel and it had "40" cast into it, so I think its +40mm too. Some members have gone to +50mm offset, but they also have a 3mm spacer. The best way to tell is to test fit a wheel and see if anything touches. Good luck, and let us know if it works. 5 Bolt Mounting Guide (lists bolt patterns) http://www.eoni.com/~djco/5bolt.html Aftermarket Wheels & Tires FAQ (this page has some DSM specific information, but it has some other really good information that applies to any other car as well) http://www.voicenet.com/~coughlin/dsm/twheel.htm Dedric Ramsey dedric@...
