October 29, 201510 yr I have a 1985 BRAT with the stock wagon wheels. The bolt pattern looks like 4 x 100 with a FWD offset. Is that right? I want to get some wheels to replace mine while I mount new tires. It's winter here now (Minnesota)and this car has never seen snow so just driving it in isn't an option.
October 29, 201510 yr They are 4x140mm, which are almost impossible to find in anything but 80s Subarus. For that reason, a lot of people either swap to 5x100mm hubs, or redrill to 6x139.7mm and use truck wheels.
October 29, 201510 yr Author Thanks guys, maybe I'll just use the spare but getting it out of the engine compartment looks like a pain.
October 30, 201510 yr Thanks guys, maybe I'll just use the spare but getting it out of the engine compartment looks like a pain. What do you mean it looks like a pain?? Its one big screw that holds it in and once when you unscrew that it pops right out. Super easy.
October 30, 201510 yr Leave it up on jackstands. Also.. Getting the spare out looks to be a pain? I hope you never have to lower one from under a van! Removing the spare from under the hood is like the easiest thing ever lol.
