1987 Subaru DL Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 Subaru DL rolls on a 4x140 bolt pattern with a 94.5mm hub-centric center bore. The stock wheel is 13x4.5 with a 55mm offset. You can upgrade to larger diameters and widths across our compatible range: 13x5, 13x5.5, 14x5.5, 14x6, 15x6, or 15x6.5. Since this vehicle runs a square setup, matching offset and width front to rear keeps things balanced and predictable.
The critical fitment detail here is that only the 4x140 bolt pattern will work on your DL—no other patterns fit. Wheels with a center bore larger than 94.5mm need hub-centric rings to seat properly and avoid vibration. As you move toward wider wheels or more aggressive offsets, monitor clearance at the fenders and suspension components; aggressive fitments risk rubbing and can affect handling.
Every wheel we list for your DL is verified to bolt on and ships free to the lower 48 states. Browse our in-stock inventory to find the size and style that matches your vision—quality wheels that fit right, shipped fast.
