Interesting, I've haven't seen a website, where not only can you pick the wheels but a girl and soundtrack too!
A thousand heads, a thousands tastes, but I wouldn't put that wheel on a B. Too open for the brightness and would make a B look top heavy, You'd need to do an auful lot of behind the wheel detailing and keep it spit shined all the time for them to look right on anything.
They will fit with a spacer. Look here: <http://www.chris-longhurst.com/carbibles/index.html?menu.html&tyre_bible.html> and scroll down to the calculator. Lots of info on this page. I don't have time to do now, but I guess you will need at least a 3/8" spacer behind them.
I think you really need a rice burner for a project. No way your going to get any respect from the Fast and Furious crowd with a B.
Not Looking to go at the speed of light or anything.. more looks and thats about it. I don't really have much taste for the original rims that came with the car. I would of course keep them and put them back on for the next owner if needed.
Hmmm, i've got a set of S10's on my Toyota, but they have the two sets of PCD on them, i should try them on a car at work.
If you're willing to go to a 40 offset and run spacers, you CAN put almost any 4-lug wheel out there on them, up to about a 15 x 7. Picking the RIGHT ones is the tricky part.
Strangely enough, one of the rice boys at the Chevron station yesterday suggested that "Unless you want to stay stock, you should put some new wheels on that." I hurt his feelings after that when I said no, and he asked why, and I told him.
Funny, I noticed that MG were not listed on that site's virtual display thingie. Maybe that's a sign?
If you want to get these wheels go for s13 not as wide open
