Hey, I have a 99 Accent GSi, I was wondering if other Hyundai models share the same bolt pattern as mine.
From what I've heard here, I have the 4x114.5 pattern.
I'd like to pick up a set of Hyundai 15s, maybe off an Elantra or Tibby.
Let me know.
THX!

Tiburon (not 2003+) and Elantra Wheels should work without any problems. Either style of rims.
4x114.3 pattern. We have captive rotors and so do the Tiburon and Elantras (up till 1999 but the wheels still have the cutouts to clear the bolts on the rotors).

Thanks man!
Time to hit my local wreckers for wheels!

I'm thinking that Sonata wheels may fit as well. I'd search for that info first though if I were you. hehe

I think there are 4 styles of alloy wheels that the Elantra and Tiburon have.
Three 5 spoke wheels and one 7 spoke style.

Stickshift has the older 5 spoke Tiburon wheels on his Accent.
4doorGL had the newer 5 spoke Tiburon wheels on his Accent.
The Elantra had a nice looking 5 spoke wheel and the 2001-2002 Tiburon's came with a 7 spoke wheel.

I'd try to see if anyone locally is selling their wheels cause the junk yard might sell them at a high price.

I'm not sure of the going rate for stock wheels, but I wouldn't want to pay too much.

I think Stickshift mentioned that you might want to use a tire that is not as wide as the stock Tiburon/Elantra tire. Look around the Accent forum for his advice.

195/50/15's fit nicely on the older 15" Tib wheels
here's a pic of my car with them(vinyl and black trim have since been removed, door handles painted, and front brakes upgraded)

I would go with 195/50R15 definately.
I'm running 185/60R14 on my stock rims and I do like the cornering performance.:evil:
I would like a better looking wheel (to show off my painted calipers) than the OEM 14s
How about offset? would this be a concern?

some nice 14" standerd rims would look ok..... i have a spear set but i am also in the UK :-) soz m8

The correct offset is +42 mm..
