Tyres / wheels

I know it's been asked tons of times but have to ask again!

What wheels can be used on a micra?
Am I right in saying :
Renault
Seat
Toyota (corolla)
Vauxhall
VW

I say these as Micra is 4x100 (I think) and the MaxPower Haynes Modifying manual states these makes as having 4x100 PCD. I know someone with Ford wheels on a Micra which is PCD 4x108.

Another question, offset, what is the micra's and what can b used without any modifying.

the center bore is usually to small on wheels made for most other cars even though the PCD is the same, u can grind them out urself or get them done properly on a lathe or something

offset is something u cant change unless its a split rim

Yes, the center bore is to small on most cars. The center bore is 59.1. The offset can be anywhere from 38mm to 45mm. And the rims can't be wider than 6.5. I have a couple of VERY helpful websites i'll post later today! Hope this helps!

the rims can be wider, however you will have to alter your car accordingly

Yes if the car is modded you could fit wider wheels! Anyways here are those web sites.
