Shop Wheels for 1984 Subaru GL
Finding the right wheels for your 1984 Subaru GL Base or Turbo doesn't have to be complicated. These models came standard with 13x5 wheels and use a 4x140 bolt pattern that's less common today.

Every wheel we offer for your GL is verified to bolt on perfectly before it ships. We handle all the fitment research so you can focus on finding the style you love. Plus, we deliver free to the lower 48 states, making it easy to get quality wheels for your vintage ride without breaking the bank.
1984 Subaru GL Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1984 Subaru GL comes standard with a 4x140 bolt pattern and rides on thirteen-inch wheels with a five-inch width and fifty-five-millimeter offset. You can stick with the original thirteen by five configuration or step up through compatible sizes: thirteen by five and a half, fourteen by five and a half, fourteen by six, fifteen by six, or fifteen by six and a half. The GL uses a square setup rather than staggered fitment, so matching wheel and tire dimensions front and rear ensures balanced handling and even wear.
Keep in mind that only the 4x140 bolt pattern will fit your Subaru GL—no other pattern works on this model. Your hub requires a ninety-four-point-five-millimeter center bore, and if a wheel's bore runs larger, install hub-centric rings to ensure a proper fit and smooth ride. Pushing beyond the larger compatible sizes or choosing aggressive offsets risks interference with your GL's fenders and suspension components, so stay within the listed dimensions for safe clearance.
All wheels listed above are verified to bolt on and ship free throughout the lower forty-eight states. Shop with confidence knowing your GL's fitment has been thoroughly checked before any purchase.
