97 GSX Wheel Bolt Pattern? What fits this thing..

[clean2g]

I'm trying to figure out what the hell would fit my 97 gsx. The rims I'm looking at have some weird sizes, and this was based upon their car search feature so:

These are the sizes:

First Package:

WHEELS:
Size: 18x7.5
Finish: Black
Bolt 1: 5x4.5
Bolt 2: 5x100
Offset: 42

TIRES:

225/40/18
235/40/18
215/40/18
245/35/18
245/45/18
215/35/18
225/45/18
245/40/18
235/50/18


Second Package:
http://www.tiresdelivered.com/proddetail.php?prod=505B-88782
WHEELS:
Size: 18x8.5
Finish: Black
Bolt 1: 5x4.75
Bolt 2: 5x4.5
Offset: 35

TIRES:
225/40/18
235/40/18
215/40/18
245/35/18
245/45/18
215/35/18
225/45/18
245/40/18
235/50/18

duno wth I'm doing.. someone want to point me in the right direction? would any of those combos fit a 97 GSX? I think the offset on the first one is too high, and then the 18x8.5 on the second one is too wide.. but not sure.

I'll just post what I know. The bolt pattern is officially 5x114.3 that you want. As for the offset a 42 would work. I'm pretty sure 35 won't work. 38 might even be pushing it. I was always told 40 to 42. Do a search on tuners on this one. There is quite a bit out there. For the tires, 215 & 225 will be fine(I have both for my daily & my race wheels). I think 235 and bigger will be asking for some rubbing issues. Do a search on tuners for this also. I don't know anyone running 235 and beyond. Some people who have wide tires and odd offsets have to 'roll' the fender well. Just get tires that fit. That's the best option.

5x114 is the same as 5x4.5, there are tons of wheels choices available for DSM's. 225 tires will fit fine, 235/245 will fit too but may require a bit of fender rolling depending on the exact tire model and wheel choice.

Cool, thx guys. I think I'll be going with the first package (18x7.5, 42 offset) and either 225/40/18 or 235/40/18 tires.. haven't decided on tire width yet, but I have a couple of weeks to decide so. I don't feel like rolling my finders but I still want the tires to be at least flush with the fenders; I like the wide look.
