16 inch rims on a '00 Sunfire Sedan
Thursday, August 21, 2008 6:37 PM
Ok, so I have these 16 inch rims I wanna use for my Sunfire, they were used on my bud's Z-24 cavalier that he recently scrapped.

My question is, can my Sunfire Sedan use them? I was told that I could, except there was something about reprogramming the car's computer if I did put them on.

Anyone know anything about this?

Straight up swap, no problem. The diameter difference isn't enough to even really worry about reprogramming anything.

The wheels are bigger, but the tires are lower-profile (less rubber). It comes out pretty close in the end.
