Need wheel help for 84 esprit turbo! PLEASE.

[lotus007]

Can anyone confirm that a wheel from a 88 esprit will fit the same bolt pattern as a 84 esprit turbo..I can't find any info on this..sorry I'm not a mechanic, just trying to replace the factory BBS style wheels with the look from the late 80's.

The bolt pattern might be the same, but the offsets are
different. The wheels won't work without spacers.

From my understanding, the 88 Steven Esprit has a different bolt pattern compares to the 84 G Type even tho they share the same offset. The Stevens is using 5x108 while the G is using 5x120. I think a fast and cheap way for me, also a G Type owner, is to look into BMW wheels and then use spacers to correct offset and center bore value. I want BBS RS wheels for my G car, but a 18" with decent offset for the rear is hard to find.
