All 1st gens except 84-85 GSL-SE are 4x110MM lug pattern.Not common,pretty difficult to find wheels for.They are out there,but the selection is limited and somewhat dated.Meaning most wheels availible are 15" or smaller and look like they belong on a 20 year old car.

The offset depends on what width of wheel you run.I had 15x7 wheels with 12MM offset and they fit perfectly under the stock fenders.

Positive offset.

And the 205/50/15's are a popular choice, IIRC. They should fit fine.

Kosei K1's aren't dated looking...
A lot of BBS looking mesh wheels aren't bad... I'm sure there's some in 110mm x 4... (1983 LE wheels... Some aftermarket...)
Panasports aren't all that dated looking either.
