Welcome to MINIS!! Nice project to have, have fun with it!!

 

Hello . . .

Hello and welcome to toyotaminis, glad to see ya here . . . Hella nice platform to start your project, feel free to jump right in . . . As for the centerbore of the hubs . . . It is easy to obtain a measurement from the hub, just measure straight across it, also, make sure to note the depth of the hub center as all wheels are different, also, mind the fact that some wheels are not all hub centric as some are lug centric, and even further some rims dont require hub centric rings although they will probably be offered for an additional price. Tuner rims for example are nice for most applications because they have large openings to fit your hubs ( watch the depth of the hub center as some are shallow. ) My rims ( 5 x 114.3/5 x 100 x 7" & +45 offset ) for example had just short of 1/2" of space all the way around and were of course lug centric. Most sellers if they know what the hell they are talking about will help you with fitment, they will list the common fitments, but also, have custom fitment charts to help you. So, it comes down to what you are looking for and what you can afford, Ebay and Craigslist, as well as, junkyards can be your friends in this. Below are some wheel/tire links to help with measurements and such.
