1990 Pontiac Tempest Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1990 Pontiac Tempest bolts on with a 5x100 bolt pattern. The original setup runs 13x5.5 wheels at a 35 offset. You can step up through several sizes—14x6, 15x6 through 15x7, 16x7, or 17-inch options ranging from 6.5 to 7.5 inches wide—all compatible with your car's square-wheel configuration.
Keep in mind that only 5x100 bolts properly to your Tempest; other patterns won't fit your hub. Your center bore measures 57.1 millimeters, so use hub-centric rings if your chosen wheel has a larger bore. As you explore wider wheels or more aggressive offsets beyond the stock 35, monitor clearance carefully to avoid rubbing against fenders or suspension components.
Every wheel listed here is verified to fit your Tempest and ships free across the lower 48 states. We stock KATANA RACING, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Vors, Motegi Racing, Aodhan, Enkei, and F1R among others—all ready to transform your ride.
