Question wheel size

Okay, so I'm looking at rims on the Enkei site and they list 4 X 100/114.3 as a bolt pattern. Does this mean it will fit between 4 X 100 and 4 X 114.3?

No it means it has 8 holes-1 set of 4x100 and one set of 4x114.3(4.5") Non -SE 1st gens use 4x110mm which is very uncommon. Best bet is to find a wheel you like and call the company to see if they will custom make them for you. Big $$$s though.

You mean to tell me all of the 15, 16 and 17" wheels I've seen in this forum were custom made?

Not all of them, but there are very few companys now that make rims in that bolt pattern. You can find used rims in that pattern, I had a set. The main problem is supply and demand. Most Hondas, Toyotas, Nissans, and domestics use either 4x100mm or 4x4.5", which is 114.3mm. Lots or demand for those 2 patterns means less options for us with oddball sizes.
