you've got captive rotors on the front.. so your going to have problems finding rims that fit..

Unless you get rims that have space to be machined out from the back side or you find some made like that....you can also do a rotor swap to fix that issue.

Well, wait a minute 98 or 98SE?

Oh, yeah...my bad. I forgot Yuri did the swap on his. oops.gif

They didn't have captive rotors.
If you take your wheel off you will see the rotor is bolted on.
These bolts (unless you have machine out rims or rims made to fit) don't let the rims sit on the hub like they should.

Too much binge drinkin' eh Redz! wink1.gif tongue.gif

Anyway, yeah like the other's have said:
4X114.3mm or 4X4.5"
THe OEM offset for the Rims is +38, for 17's look for +42
205/40/17's is what for some 17's

And yeah, since it's a 98, you have captive rotors, here's a pic of captive on the left with the bolts and non captive on the right:

You can get pretty much any rim, but need them to be drilled out inside to fit the rotors, or you can ones that will fit.
