cjboccia Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Hello, Just found a set of old Subaru rims that the local dealer could not tell me what model Subaru they were for. The following is stamped on the sides of the rims: J 13x5.0 J DOT 12 02 85 5-Jx13. They are 14 1/2 inch diameter, 6 inch width and are a 4 lug nut rim. Would anyone be able to help tell me what vehicle these rims are for so that I can properly post them on Craigs list and other classified sites. Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bheinen74 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 the stamping tells the correct size, dont go by your incorrect measuring which is measuring wrong. these are 13" rims 5 inch width thats that stamping check out the subarus of the 80's link up top of this board, and click on the wheels page.

cjboccia Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 I don't see the 13x5.0 in the 'Subaru's of the 80's" link. Perhaps the Rim is for a 90's model. I have a pic of the rim, but don't see a way to include in this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 measure the distance from the center of one lug hole to one straight across from it. that'll tell if it's from an '80s model (5.5") or a justy (more like 4". I dont remember exactly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firespray401 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 According to the style spec image for both the 80-84 and 85-89 they are 13x5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't (don't? your attitude makes me inclined to dismiss you...) know they printed manufacture dates on the rim. even so, they could still easily be for a justy. or EA81. either would drastically limit the fitment.
