On my 1999 Suzuki I removed the 12" wheel and 23x8 all-trail combos and put the original donuts back on with the mud and snow tire tread. I am not liking the smaller tire aesthetically, but the reduced road noise and elimination of steering wheel death wobble is worth it. I rarely drive off road needing the larger atv tires like I had thought. So the hunt is on now for a 13 inch rim to fill in that wheel space a bit. Here are some 4x100 wheels I have found. They all state a high positive offset; +35,40,45 Honda Accord 82-89 13x5 Civic 80-96 13x5 Crx, Prelude 80-91 13x5.5 Ford Escort LX Wagon 91-94 13x5.5 Chevy Chevette 75-86 13x5 nova/spectrum 86-89 13x5.5 Dodge Aries 81-86 13x5.5 Toyota Celica 86-91 13x5.5 Suzuki Esteem 95-97 13x5.5
Pretty sure mine are old Honda Accord wheels. I bought a set of 4 with good M+S tires for $100 at a junkyard. They work great even if they are "pizza cutters". I've pulled several full size trucks out of the mud with them.
Also Toyota Tercel/Paseo wheels fit... you don't need to worry about offset etc because as far as I can see there isn't a 13" tire made that won't fit under a stock mini truck. I had 155/80/13's under my truck with no lift, and recently fit 195/75/14's under there this fall (that's a 25.5" tall tire!) with a 2" spacer lift no prob. Steelies are your best bet, but I know there are some decent deals out there... I'd surf junkyards and craigslist. You might even find some decent snow tires this time of the year...
Are there any hub hole isseus you know of? Maybe I'll try to grab a set today, I think I need to run to the big city.
I don't think so. The mini's have smaller hub holes than pretty much anything else I've run across...
