the center bore on the solara is 60.1- found it here on H&R's website under spacers:

As for getting spacers with a different hub size, I dont know about that...

EDIT: Sorry, you just beat me :lol:

do they sell spacers with a smaller center bore so that my wheels can fit onto the spacer?? like can I buy a spacer maybe for lets say a cavalier or something with a smaller center bore so that it'll fit?? and with the 60.1 center bore, Im asuming a 58 or lower center bore would work right??

Edit:
would something like this work?

I'm just gonna answer your PM here.

If you bought a spacer with a LOWER center bore, it wouldn't even fit on the hub. You'd want a HIGHER center bore, but that doesn't mean anything.

If the center bore of your new wheel is smaller than what's on the car (i.e. less than 60.1), you can't use the wheel on your car, PERIOD, no exceptions.

with my 10mm spacers, is it a must that I need to get longer wheel studs. Can't I just use the studs that are on the spacer already? (what is the point of havin a longer wheel stud)

yes you could.

but there might be a problem. your stock styds might be too long and may not sit flush with ur wheel when installed.

^ thats the issue- the spacer covers up the stock studs. Your lugs have to have enough length to be properly tightened. There is a very specific number of turns that lugs must be tightened onto the studs with or you risk them falling off. Thats why when you run spacers you want to have longer studs to compensate.
