Canada GEN 3 stock rim questions

I know this should be pretty simple for some of you, but not finding what I'm looking for trying to search through threads.
I want to pick up a set of rims from my local wreckers for a second set of rims. From what I gather, stock rims I have now are 15 x 7? or am I wrong? [I have a '92 with 15" alum stock rims at present] With having winters that I use, I want to get a 15" rim that looks decent and fits properly. I know the bolt patter is 114.5, but the offset is what I don't know. Is there any specific car manufacturers that use the same rim size stock? is there any specific bs size I should stay away from? and how do I measure? Just hate to get a set and be stuck with them and them not fit right.
Appreciate any help. TIA

Not sure which stock rim you have but this one is 15X6 with a 45mm offset.



In general, if you stay within a 38 to 45mm window on the offset, you're pretty safe. Can't tell you who else uses the 5X114.3 bolt pattern for sure. I know some Mazdas use it at least. Some Lexus models also. That's something you could check into at TireRack.com by plugging in various models and seeing what bolt pattern it spits out. Somebody else may post you a list

Oh, also, Toyota uses a 60.1mm center bore on the Camry wheels. Anything smaller won't fit. Anything larger and you'll need hubcentric centering rings.

Yeah, my bad. You're right. I was thinking about the 5X114.3 vs the 5X4.5 measurements that they quote, and intermixed the two.

I've seen a Gen3 with rims from the new Maxima SE on it. Looked absolutely badass.

Thanks for the response. Those are actually the rims I have on it now. I want to get another set so that I can put my other tires on instead of actually going through changine the tires on the rims. From the wreckers I can pull rims from, seems all the camry's have steel wheels, so wanted to see what else I can use without any issues. Trying to keep this as cheap and simnple as possible. I have rims but theyr'e for a jeep cheri and won't work on the car at all.

I may be selling mine soon when I get my new rims. Unfortunately, shipping to Canada would probably be a deal killer

Who up here hasn't?? Got something from eBay, and of course, $50 more just because it was sent UPS. Like what?? it was touched by God's hand or somewith gold fingers? Hell, if someones just over the border, better to drive a couple hours and go shopping while there than give money away to the UPS man.

Just reading up on the 'hub-centric' thing. Wasn't sure what it was as jeeps' don't have.

So if I'm reading this right, if I find a rim that works that uses the cone type lugs, then I would gather that using a hub ring isn't necessary then? When looking though I plan on checking out similar type cars first to see what's available as I figure it would be easier that way, but it's a crap shoot what you find.
