Lightbulb Wheels.and more wheels.

SO I have a shopping list and the 15th is coming up wiht a paycheck.
My list of items to buy are. Shocks/Springs/Brakes/stainless brakelines since im there.. and sway bars since its all going to be off..

The next thing is wheels. working from the ground up and all.

My question is. whay stock wheels meaning from different cars work on our cars. I have seen people sporting 300z wheels 240 wheels. and things of that sort. I know what the bolt pattern is but has there been a list or does anyone know of one off hand so I can get a guess as to whats available on the cheap when it comes to wheels?

I dont want to get some aftermarket ones atm. and mr2 15"ers are rare in this neck of the woods. I am looking for something in a 15 or 16" in a OEM form.

Might be bigger than your looking for but I have seen wheels from rx7's along with the 93.5-98 supra on MKII's the n/a supra's had smaller wheels if that helps at all.

don't think there's a list of stockers that work because the list is short due to the staggered setup and due to limited clearance up front that often require spacers.

FD wheels require spacers up front. S14 SE wheels are skinnier than stock out back.
Z32 Turbo wheels do generally work well. sti wheels need a spacer up front.

If you go narrower than stock or don't stagger, you're generally wasting your time.
