1997 Pontiac Sunfire Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1997 Pontiac Sunfire GT and SE mount wheels with a 5x100 bolt pattern. Stock fitment is 14x6 with a 45mm offset. You can fit wheels up to 18 inches, with compatible sizes ranging from 14x6 through 18x8. Since your car runs square setup front and rear, staggered options aren't a consideration.
Keep in mind that only 5x100 bolts secure to your Sunfire—no other pattern will work. Your hub requires a 57.1mm center bore, so use hub-centric rings if your wheel's bore exceeds that diameter. Aggressive offsets or excessively wide widths risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so verify fitment before ordering outside the listed compatible sizes.
Every wheel we stock for your Sunfire is verified to bolt on, and we ship free across the lower 48 states. KATANA RACING, Work Wheels, Enkei, and Motegi Racing are among the brands currently in inventory that fit your application.
