hmm me and a buddy are building a rs turbo capri. so at some point ill have the rims from it when we get different ones. i dont fully under stand how to figure out if a rim and tire will fit. i know about bolt patterns but not off set's ect.

I have a hard time trusting wheel adapters. The "wobble head" bolts would be ok, if they were used in conjuction with metal centering rings, otherwise you could have a vibration from having wheels slightly off center.
