Re: 97 cat bolt pattern?

No this won't fit. OEM is 5x110 with a CB of 65,1mm.
With adapting bolts and a spigot ring will also fit 5x112. All other 5-lug patterns are possible with adapting wheel spacers (they are around 20-25mm thick, so you have to be careful with the ET). But this wont work with adapting a 4-lug pattern to a 5-lug car.

Re: 97 cat bolt pattern?

What do you mean by multibolt?
The problem is, adapting 4 lug to 5 lug. For example: Draw a circle and on this circle draw the five lug-holes. Now try to draw on the same circle 4 evently spaced out lug holes. Thats impossible cause everytime 2 of the holes will be too near to fabricate it.

Re: 97 cat bolt pattern?

What about late model STS or CTS wheels? I believe they are on a 5x115 bolt pattern. Will these work Aldi?

Re: 97 cat bolt pattern?

I don't know what bolt pattern these rims have. If they have 5x115 CB 72mm then you can use adaption wheel spacers (picture below). These spacers are bolted on the hub (with 5x110) and the wheel is bolted on the spacer (with 5x115). But the spacer is 25mm thick and therefore it reduces the offset of the wheel. If you adapt a wheel with an offset of 35mm you will end with an offset of only 10mm. This could be a bit too closely to the wheel housing.

In Germany you can get such adapters here: http://www.spurverbreiterung.de/index.php?c=true&lan=uk but i think there should be also someone in the US, who farbicates these.
