New wheels don't have to be expensive. There are always bargains on eBay. The Tire Rack has a nice selection of Catera wheels ranging from $89 - $199. Add tires and maybe they'll give you a discount. They have more expensive ones too. Beware: Not all the wheels listed on eBay for the Catera will fit the Catera. Remember, if you want them to fit and not ruin the handling, or destroy the wheel bearings, they must have a 5x110 bolt pattern and, depending on the wheel, a +35mm to +45mm offset. Offset determines the wheel's inner and outer clearances. Follow the link to an explanation of offset and how to measure it. Or you can use the Offset Calculator. http://www.yokohamatire.com/utcustom.asp http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp https://www.rsracing.com/tech-wheel.html
Supposedly, wheels for the following cars will also fit the Catera (97-01). Verify before paying.
