Gray,

After reading your post in the spacers section, I want to clarify my response. I thought you were only asking about tires (which should work). Are you asking about 6 wheels on a 626? Of this, I am not as sure. They have the same bolt pattern, but I'm not as sure about the hub bore (the size of the hole in the middle). However your friend is probably right that the high offset of the 6 wheel will require spacers to get them to fit without hitting the suspension. If you happen upon some 6 wheels, make sure you test fit everything first before purchasing.

well they are off my 6 and i have been meaning to sell them but my sister has a 626 and she wants them and I'm trying to see if they will fit..and yes they are the 16 inch rims(5 spoke) and the stock Michelen tires 205/60/R16...i was just going to put them on for her and see what happens...i mean if there is a conflict with hitting the suspension or whatever then i will get these spacers things OR maybe just get the right tires if that is the case..thanks for your help
