1988 Pontiac 6000 Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1988 Pontiac 6000 Base bolts on a 5x115 pattern and runs 14x5.5 wheels at 45mm offset from the factory. You can step up to larger diameters and widths across the board—14x6, 15-inch sizes from 15x6 through 15x7, 16-inch options at 16x6.5 or 16x7, and 17-inch wheels up to 17x8. Since this model uses a square setup front and rear, any compatible size works equally on all four corners.
Only wheels with a 5x115 bolt pattern will fit this Pontiac; no other pattern is compatible. The hub center bore measures 70.3mm, so use hub-centric rings if your chosen wheel's bore runs larger than that specification. While you have latitude in diameter and width, aggressive offsets or extremely wide wheels risk rubbing against the fenders or suspension components, so moderate your choices accordingly.
Every wheel we stock for your 6000 is verified to bolt on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Heritage Wheel, Petrol, American Racing, Performance Replicas, Asanti Black, and others in our catalog all fit your model perfectly.
