91 Camry - Wheel Offset and Handling Question

I bent two of the OEM steel wheels on my 91 Camry DX when I hit a 4" wood beam that dropped off a truck.

1. As replacements, I saw some U.S. made replacement wheels by Unique at much lower prices than junkyard and a fraction of dealer prices. However, the OEM offset is 38 mm and the Unique wheel offests are 35 mm. So my question is, will this make a difference on handling, suspension, etc.?

2. Any opinions on Unique's wheels, made in USA?

3. Anyone have wheels off a 91 Camry (4-cyl) they want to sell? I need 14x5.5, with bolt pattern 5x100.
Wheels from other Gen 2 year (87-90) are a different style and color. Wheels from 92-on will not fit (they have a larger bolt pattern).
Any advice is much appreciated.

T. V.

Ive got 4 steelies with tires, about 80% thread left, straight of my 91 camry you could take of my hands, depending on where you live.

the 3mm probably wont make any difference.

Thandks - wish I could take the wheels off your hands - but I'm in the Washington DC area - Charlotte is a wee bit too far.

But, out of curiosity, how much do you want for them? The wheels shold have 10 oval holes around the bolt area.
