anyone know if 97 outback rims will fit a 91 sport sedan?

I think that its time to rebuild my turbo. I drove to work today and
the needle on my boost was swinging irradically and didn't spool up
untill 4,000rpm. Then all the sudden it was back to normal, and then
back to being jumpy. All the hoses are good, the bov seems just fine,
I just replaces the PCV, If anyone has an idea on what the problem
could be or a price for a rebuild let me know thanks, Ian

Yeah, they should fit fine.

Generally, almost all Subaru wheels will fit but almost nothing else will.


Rims? You mean the standard steel wheels with hubcaps, right? Start calling junkyards. That's what I did.


If you want a nice-looking alloy rim, then maybe something for the RS or WRX fits - but they will be bigger than your 14inchers - screwing up your odometer, speedo, and possibly causing fender issues.

I'm looking for some cheap rims for my 1990 Subaru Legacy L. I don't care
what size the rims are, or what car they are from. But I'm not sure of the
lug pattern so I don't know what rims to look for. Does anyone know what the
pattern is, or what rims from other cars will fit on it?

Yeah, Im not really worried about the spedo, since it doesn't work anyways.
I just want to replace the steels. I'll start checking the junkyards for any
alloy rims.

Thanks

Sorry, what was I thinking. if you get the right aspect ratio tires, you can work with a bigger rim. It still probably needs to be Subaru-specific, though, to get the right offset and bolt pattern.

VW Golf, 2000 up use the same bolt pattern and offset. I bought my steels for 25 each and they were basically new (came from the VW dealer).

Bolt pattern is 5-100, offset shoulf be realitvely high....low 50's

Dependant on width, 51-55 for 6.5 46-48 for 7 from what I have read.
