Diablo 20inch Vienna rims

So I bought these Diablo rims from my bro and they where on a old chevy classic I had, but I want to buy a new car. How can I figure what car/style is appropriate for the rims without them rubbing?

Find out what size and offset the Diablo wheels are. Then go from there.

I'd call Diablo.

You need to know the wheel width and the offset and it'll take longer to explain it than Diablo will take to tell you. Seriously.

and obviously you need to ask them the bolt pattern, if you don't already know that now

see if you can find any numbers on the wheels themselves. some manufacturers will put the offset and width of the rim right on there

are you really buying a car based on if your rims will fit on it?



quick google search brought up that they're only available in the 20" size at 20X8.5. Couldn't easily find the offset, but check the back of the wheel it might be imprinted there. I couldn't find what lug patterns that were available, but it seemed like most were some type of universal 5 lug. not sure if that means 5x114 or 5x100 or 5x112 or 5x108 or what.

Crown Vics and Impalas seem to be the norm for huge wheels these days
