Sounds like they would fit, but if possible test fit them to make sure. 4x100 is the bolt pattern you're looking for.

Looks like Elantra's use a 4x114.3 pattern, so you most probably cant use those wheels. Those tires are waay to tall for your car too. I use 195/50/15.

Rim Size And Bolt Pattern -

Just be glad your car uses 4x100, your wheel choices are nearly unlimited. I am switching my '81 Rx7 from 4x110 to 4x114.3 and even though there are ALOT more options for that size compared to 4x110, there still arent as many as I thought. But I am REALLY picky with aftermarket wheels... Cant have any 'ricey-ness' and no 'bling'.

Ooops, I somehow totally missed the universal part. If it is universal, then yes they should fit, the other 4 bolt pattern should be 4x100. Universal wheels have a duel bolt pattern, 4 holes will be spaced at 4x114.3 and the other 4 holes will be 4x100. Im really sorry about that buddy!

D'oh, my bad!

If you use the tires that are on there it will mess with your speedometer though. And your car might look like its been lifted!

yeah im pretty sure if you want NO rubbing then you have to go with 50's, 55's are just a tad too big, my friend is running 50's on his 2 and he has never had any problems with it.

i was actually thinking of going 60 in the back and 50 in the front, anyone tried that?
