Does anyone know the bolt pattern for a Dodge Neon - will it fit a Fiero? TIA

I THINK it will. but check with others

5x100 FTW... offset probably isn't right though...

Edit: Stock Neon offset is 40mm

That offset is acceptable. The wheels will fit.

One of the more popular swaps is the PT Cruiser "dream cruiser" chrome wheels. Same bolt pattern.

The later model 17 inch PT cruisers had the center hub issue like the vibe and toyota. 3mm too small.

Don't we need to know what year the dodge neon wheels are from? Or are they all the same? I would imagine the lug pattern and offset have changed some what in the neons production run?

I think some neons ar 4 lug. They will NOT fit.

Corect me if I'm wrong but dosent the lug pattern change depending on the engine and trans in the car? Like the 4cyl model had 4 lugs and the v6 model had 5lugs both models made in the same year? I know not all cars are like this but I think a lot of them are so really if the neon HAS 5 lugs than it will most likely fit aslong as dodge dident change the offset on all of there neons with 5 lugs haha

i hope your thinking SRT4 style rims

no - all Fieros are the same 5x100 pattern

I think valiant was referencing the Neon with the comment about 4 cyl versus V6?

Ya I was refuring to the neon! I know all the fieros were the same 5 lug
What I ment is that I think that 4cyl neons are 4lugs at least the older ones are the neon has been in production for a long time and wheel bolt patterns and offsets change a lot eather way we would need to know more info about the neon that the wheel is off of. If the wheel has 5 lugs than the lug pattern is most likely the same but the offset is dependent of wether it was a neon sxt or the base model or quote un quote performance model with a diffrent offset for wider tires

the dodge neon was NEVER offered with a v6

my 1995 plymouth neon was a 4 lug, all 1996 or newer's i believe are 5 lug 5x100 pattern, i know for a fact the 96-99 were all 5 lug, i have neon rims on my 84 fiero right now.

Cool I wasent shure if they had a v6 version do you have any pics of the neon wheels on your fiero? And is the offset 40mm on all of the newer style neons?

Here's a link to the wheels in question. The guy says he had them on a Neon - not stockers. For the price they may be worth picking up? What do you all think?

I like them! Go for it and for that price thay are a steal! As long as there is nothing wrong with them make shure they don't have any cracks in them or anything like that do they come with the tires too? Even with out tires they sound like a good deal imo if you get them post pics with them on your car!

Yep-come with the tires too - says they are 205/40R17's with 80% tread - going to look at them this evening. Offer him 200 and see where it goes.

Cool good luck and don't forget the pics on your car if you get them!

Whats the offset?

Someone said 40mm. I will measure them when I go look at them tonight! I used some Scio TC wheels that had a 47mm offset on an 86 - they looked really good but did sit in a little too far. Had about 1/2" clearance between the wheel and the strut. I think 40mm would work ok. I am thinking about using these on my XTC!

Whats the center bore on the neon? Thats where I would be concerned. If its too big you'll need concentric rings. Too small will need bored out if possible. Fiero is 57.1mm. Aftermarket wheels are always larger and need rings.

Went and looked at them. The only nice one is the one in the add. The other 3 are curb rashed and beat to parade rest. I passed. Alos looked at a set off of a 2000 VW Beetle. Not bad looking rims but too much back space for my project! 100.00 for the wheels with fairly decent 205/40R16 tires!

That's too bad about those rims I hate it when they only show a picture of the good one! Just out of curiousity what was the offset on the vw wheels
