Do a search.. somewhere on this forum is a thread all about wheels and what offsets and widths you can run....

Are yours 4 or 5 stud?If you are after 5 stud,I will have some 16x8 advantis(5 spoke) with warrantable 225-50-16 tyres soon.
They fit my Starion mint(No rubbing etc)
They are the one's on my Starion under the "Show and go" section

Read that post
Doesnt say which wheels are for which Starion or what a ja Starion comes with from factory
eg. Ill be wanting to know what size wheels and tires are on car when i buy it [ as has standard starion mags ] and then what wheels i can put on once i buy it [ probably want 16's]
Is Jb same as Ja when it comes to wheels?

Ja and Jb will be 4 stud.Factory wheels are 14" or 15"(Depending on spec)
Unless someone has fitted 5 stud hubs,brakes etc

also bear in mind that JA, JB and JD doesn't apply to any Starions in New Zealand - unless they are a private import from Australia.
In NZ we have the NZ-new 'EX' model which is 4 stud up until around 1984 and then from then onwards they are 5 stud. The Jap import models, which are A183A models are 4 stud, however DASH powered A183A models are 5 stud.

when I first bought my 83 EX Starion(about 7 years ago)It had factory 15x6.5.
My mates old 83 jap spec had 14x6 on it.
all 4 stud

4 stud 5 spokes alloys seem to be harder to find with the right offset
5 stud alloys are the same as pre 98 Falcoons(Thats where I got my 2 sets from)And fit good :D

Look for Rims to suit R31 skylines and old RWD toyotas. Same stud pattern and pretty much the same offsets.

or any 4 stud fwd offset (+40 etc) wheels and you can get adapters made to fit
makes finding wheels much easier
