Stock pcd is 4x110, so no they really won't fit. You can easily go up to a 7 inch wide wheel and
it depends on the diameter and where the max wheel width hits on the front springs.

Wobble bolts and they will fit. But then you run into the issue of finding tyres. Which availability of 13" tyres is on the decline. Unless you don't mind cheapo Chinese or Korean tyres.


*check your thread patterns on your wheel studs. I just pulled the first ebay ad for wobble bolts that popped up.


EDIT: what offset are those wheels?

The only 13" performance rubber you will find is RDOT stuff from Hoosier and Toyo and they are
$150 per tire usually. Plus they aren't too street friendly meaning they shed a lot of rubber and
don't work well in wet or cold temps etc.

i think you could probably get 10,000 miles out of a toyo, they are actually ok for sticky street tires/track day tires. they should be fine in the rain too, we use them as rain tires. not sure about the cold

Thanks for the advice!

Is a five lug conversion from an FC the remedy? I just want some rim choice affordable wheel tire combo but I want to have some worth stancing the car later on. I really do dig those advans and I have had my eyes on these rims for the longest

until I came across this picture of these rims i like








any ideas? does this alfa share my lug pattern

A gsl-le suspension swap will give you 4x114 pcd and a lot more choices. Its also fairly easy
compared to an FC swap to go to 5 lug.
