    Bolt pattern is the same 5 on 4.5 but finding a good tire size in 14" is getting harder all the time.

    Agreed, took me almost a month to find some, no one around here sells 14" tires anymore...ended up having to drive 50 miles to get my rears.

    I wouldnt necessarily say no, if you like the rims enough its worth the effort to find tires, the rims I have is a set like Ive always wanted, so I was determined to find a set...lol

    Ive also managed to pick up a few spares from tire shops, a lot of people when they get one flat goes ahead and changes all 4, so I have a few 14"s thats nearly brand new.
