Re: need help with beretta wheels
ALL Beretta wheels will fit as will the Cavaliers.
Most are 16" however the Berettas are generally 7" wide and the Cavy's 6"
All are the same 5 x 100mm bolt circle.

Re: need help with beretta wheels
thanks for your fast responce.....next question with the cav's being 6" does that effect anything??? also if the beretta has 14" rims now and i go to the 16" how do you adjust to the larger wont it change the speedo? to you have to have a tire with a lower side wall??

That should help you sort it out.
And the Cavy wheels will work just fine. Just don't "over-tire" them
Have fun.

Re: need help with beretta wheels
Tire size is what changes the speedo, not wheel size. 16" tire sizes that are correct for a Beretta are 205/55R16 and 225/50R16. 205 is the limit for a narrow Cavalier wheel, and 225 is about the limit for a 7" Beretta wheel (Z26, GTZ or GTU).
I have even seen Subaru & Scion 17" wheels on a Beretta with no fitment problems.
