I have read about upgrading from 13' to 15" rims.
I'm unsure of bolt pattern and offset, etc, that work best on these cars.
I was considering some ROTA RB WHEELS 15X7 4X95.25 RS
Does anyone have experience with fit and clearance of the about size rim?
thank you

Those are the ones you want. 4X95.25mm is the same as 4X3.75". The perfect offset is +25. There is a still a chance that your tires will rub on the inner fender lips. Some guys will trim the lip a hair so they won't cut the tires. The usual tire size mounted on those rims is 205/50/15. Most guys go to the 15" rim to have access to a better selection of tires. Nobody makes a really good 13" street tire any more.
