Well i just bought my first Solara and it was a deal that i had to take. If i could of chosen a specific Solara i probably would of gotten the V6. I got a 4l Silver 1st gen and I'm liking it. I have a lot of plans for my Solara just by looking at a lot of your guys pics. My car is all stock and looking at tinting windows and rear lights. My head lights I want to convert to the HID but im still learning about the HID conversion and how the colors and brightness and different styles. Also I got these rims on my S10 that are 18's, witch im looking to swap them on my Solara just got to get low pro's on them. Whats the size limits of rims that you can put on Solara's. I dont want to take them off and putt tires on them if they dont fit. If you guys can help me out that would be great. thanks

Welcome.well depends on the bolt pattern, but if they do fit, I think 20 inches was the max. But 18 is your best bet.

yeah, i'm not sure we share the same bolt pattern as the s10's....

i believe we're ..... 5x114.5?

other than that, make sure you have the proper offset to prevent fender rubbing.

18's will fit..

i think 225/40/18 is a good size of tire. but you might want to double check that on one of the wheel/tire threads (or stickies) we have.

Thanks for the info guys. My Rims have that universal bolt pattern so it has other wholes for other patterns ill loook into the size of tire more and see how it will fit. I found the stock rims for the S10 so ill be making the swap. I appreciate all your info guys.
