That's the same lug pattern. Offset should be between about 40-45mm for best results.

4 lugs, 114.3 pattern diameter, 195/60R15 Tire is the factory setup.

However I prefer my setup with 5 lugs, 114.3 pattern diameter...and depending what wheels I run, a 205/55R15 tire, or a 215/35R18 tire.

Did I mention I like talking about my 5 lug conversion?
