I have a 97 outback sport, and I bent a steel rim, so when I ordered my replacement tires from the tirerack, I had one mounted on one of their steel rims. It fit perfectly.
I don't know what wheel covers you have- (or if you care about covers) but that was the only trick. My car has a locking ring that glues to the rim and holds on the wheel cover- I had to make sure I retrieved that from the old wheel, and glued it to the new one.
Other than that, no problems- and they were cheap! (~$30)

No covers!
Hell no.
Thanks anyways.

I ended up paying $38/wheel from Tire Rack because the guys at Discount Tire couldn't tell me what the offset on their 15" wheels were. Paid a bit more for peace of mind, I guess.

I have a set of 14" steels in anybody wants them...

Got mine from Tirerack. $38 sounds right.

Just ordered a set of 4 15" takeoffs with 185/65R -15 Hakka 1's on them.
All incl. 542.-
At a local Discounttire. Will have them friday. Whohooo!
Those Kumhos suck in the cold, but they last longer than expected. Already 7k mls on them and they are good for another season. Not too bad...
