pretty sure SAAB's had a 114.3 PCD as well. I use a 15" SAAB spacesaver wheel over my front brakes to get the car into the trailer.

thanks for the help so far guys ......

looks like a 5.5" rim in 13" wheel is near impossible as factory ..... excels and the likes are all 5".

there is a company i know of, and have spoken to, that will re-do offsets by removing the centre and rewelding it in the existing rim or into a new wider rim, but cost wise it's not really worth it unless you're going for something really specific in width.
$55.00 to reset offset in orig rim
$75.00 to weld existing centre into new rim at desired offset
do the later with 4 wheels and the cost of buying them and you're pushing up over $300 for a set of steel rims .... not real value for money in my eyes with a 13" wheel just so as to run hubcaps ??
think i'm going to settle with a set of 13x5" stock steelies and sort something else from there.

thanks tho, for all the input so far

ahhhhhh I see. I have took some of my old steel nissan wheels and cut the centers out and found some wheels off a domestic car here in the U.S. & set me up a jig & welded the centers into the deeper rings before ,maybe you can find sombody to do this for you.

I stand corrected about FWD cars. Leave it to Nissan to make newer parts fit our older cars!
